Juro Bystricky e4a4c9b1ac bitbake: bitbake-user-manual-fetching.xml: note about URLs with semi-colons
Some URLs contain semi-colons. Unfortunatelly, bitbake uses semi-colons in SRC_URI
as delimiters for various parameters.
It may still be possible to use such URLs, providing the user replaces semi-colons ';'
with '&' characters.

For example:

   http://abc123.com/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git;a=snapshot;h=a5dd47

 and

   http://abc123.com/git/?p=gcc/gcc.git&a=snapshot&h=a5dd47

should be equivalent, as W3C recommends treating ';' in queries identically to '&'.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/appendix/notes.html#h-B.2.2

Kudos to Olof Johansson
