Triaging as UBN because this is a fatal error on a regular user request that is a risk for HTTP 5xx alarms, and also because it makes some of our primary content entirely inaccessible.

Both of these have invalid values for wgInternalRedirectTargetUrl:

The reason the redirect target is invalid is because the fragment is too long and got cut off when it was inserted into the database:

ysql:research@s3-analytics-slave [mywiki]> select *, length(rd_fragment) from redirect where rd_from=79979 \G

Either of these two patches fixes this bug, but the WikiPage one is more minimal, and the TitleCodec one is more far-reaching.

Is this really a train blocker? Fixing code from 2008?

This is a regression caused by abd3c02d0811302.

And yet it wasn't serious enough to block the wmf.26 train. Train blockers are for serious issues. This isn't that.
