Comment(by dwright):

 Replying to [comment:7 hakre]:

 > I suggest to close as invalid. The patch IMHO is a wreck. It might do
 the job for the reporter but it actually does break parts of the sofware
 which are not broken.

 As I mentioned in bug 10690, I believe Wordpress should be an IDNA-enabled
 application.

 In order to achieve that, an php IDN library needs to be employed. The
 most promising one appears to be:
 [http://freshmeat.net/projects/php_net_idna] and it is GPL'd.

 Using that library this issue would be resolved by the included patch,
 this current patch should work for all cases and not break any existing
 functionality.
