Yes, this is emacs-w3m specific problem, because it only appears on
w3m's 'halfdump' output.
Do you mean the latest CVS version of emacs-w3m still exibit this bug?
As I mentioned, I've commited a workaround for this bug...

I meant: 
  [emacs-w3m:00150] was for 'link url'.
  This bug is for 'form action url' and is caused by the same reason
  (w3m halfdump output format).
