 Options-permalink.php contains a sentence that needs a semicolon and a
 comma wrapped around the word "however."
 {{{By default WordPress uses web URLs which have question marks and lots
 of numbers in them, however WordPress offers you the ability to create a
 custom URL structure for your permalinks and archives.}}}
 Should be
 {{{By default WordPress uses web URLs which have question marks and lots
 of numbers in them; however, WordPress offers you the ability to create a
 custom URL structure for your permalinks and archives.}}}

 A good summary of the proper uses of "however" and semicolons can be found
 [http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/104864/use-of-a-semicolon-
 before-and-comma-after-however here]. It looks like this error has been in
 place since 2004 ([1664]).

 In short, the semicolon is needed in addition to the comma to help bridge
 the two clauses of the sentence.
