 The addition of the canonical redirection in changeset 5890 and 5891 in
 SVN causes my site to display the following error message in Firefox:

 The page isn't redirecting properly
 Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this
 address in a way that will never complete.

 In Safari, it displays:
 Safari can’t open the page.
 Too many redirects occurred trying to open “http://www.MySite.com/”. This
 might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page
 which then is redirected to open the original page.

 I am able to access /wp-admin, and tried changing themes and/or settings
 with no success.  Once I revert back to 5889, it works fine.
