Comment:

 I believe I've found the problem.  In parse_request() in classes.php, the
 path info is stripped from the end of the requested URI.  However, the
 path is not URI encoded, so it fails to match in the str_replace.  This
 patch urlencodes the path info (minus slashes) so it can be tested
 properly.

 With the patch applied, all permalinks, including encoded ones, are
 followable.
