I expect this is fixed in trunk; can you verify?

Yes, it works in trunk. It is possible per Special:Block/Username, but I cannot access Special:Block directly to type in my username, but that is ok, I think.

Which revision has the fix so we can merge it?

You'll need most of the blocking frontend rewrite, that's r83786 and friends, r83825, r83855, r83909, and most of their follow-ups. You probably won't need the backend stuff I did afterwards. I have no idea which of these contains the fix, and it almost certainly won't work without the others anyway.

It's very probably easier to do a quick hackfix in the REL1_17 branch and worry about reviewing all this for 1.18.

Can you do the quick fix for 1.17? We're already looking at the code for 1.18, so we'll make sure the rewrite is included there.
