The problem here is that Psi does some horrible horrible recognition of links. Truly horrible. I did once write a 'correct' parser, based on the bnf at w3c, but people are lazy and type psi.affinix.com when they mean http://psi.affinix.com, which is why we've got the horrible mess we've got now. I've noted your patch for checking for 0.10, thanks.
