YQL url lookup bug

Making the YQL call:
select * from html where url="http://www3.open.ac.uk/courses/bin/p12.dll?C01uT184"
YQL is actually calling:
<url execution-time="181"><![CDATA[http://www3.open.ac.uk/courses/bin/p12.dll?C01uT184=]]></url>
which is not what was asked for...

ie YQL is appending '=', which leads to a broken URL as far as http://www3.open.ac.uk/courses/bin/p12.dll is concerned...
