 Line 768 within class-wp-list-table.php in the pagination function is:
 {{{
 $current_url = set_url_scheme( 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .
 $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] );
 }}}
 This can result in some very weird anomalies if the HTTP_HOST is being
 mapped in a weird way (for example behind a proxy, the result can be
 instead of the domain, an IP is returned).

 A simple fix is to use the home_url as the substitute for the HTTP_HOST
 but probably better to guarantee it's returning the correct data would be
 to use site_url as it's calling a specific file within the site_url
 structure.
