This is from the Explorator mailing list at

In my gnus, url fontification stops at the `=' character. Oort Gnus

Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2002-04-29 on billwlx

At a memorial for the four Canadians killed in that 'friendly fire'
incident in Afghanistan, our Governess-General appears to have
quoted from Pericles' Funeral Oration (although true to form, Canadian
journalists seem unable to 'name the name'):

And when hitting <RET> on the url, the url that's sent to my browser
is also truncated after the `='.

I'm sure there is a simple regexp somehwere which says what
characters are allowed in URLs.

The problem is that { and } have to be encoded in URLs. RFC 1738 says:
Other characters are unsafe because gateways and other transport
agents are known to sometimes modify such characters. These
characters are "{", "}", "|", "\", "^", "~", "[", "]", and "`".
All unsafe characters must always be encoded within a URL.
If you want to allow them, you can add them to `gnus-button-url-regexp'.
