weird HttpResponseRedirect reaction to url

[billychasen]

If I have a url defined, such as:

(r'^{hello$', 'mysite.index.views.hello')}

and let's say I have a page on ​http://mysite.net that redirects via HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('mysite.index.views.hello'))

If I am at ​http://www.mysite.net -- it correctly goes to ​http://www.mysites.net/hello
If I am at ​http://mysite.net (no www) -- it redirects to ​http://mysite.net/.net/hello

It's easily fixed by changing the url definition to

(r'^{hello/$', 'mysite.index.views.hello') (adding a trailing forward slash)}

Seems to me though, that this shouldn't be required (seems a little buggy and took awhile to track down)
