Broken expression in itemquery returns wrong feature

[david.fawcett@…]

MapServer 4.6.1 on Red Hat.  

$ mapserv -v
MapServer version 4.6.1 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP OUTPUT=SVG
SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=THREADS INPUT=EPPL7
INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE DEBUG=MSDEBUG

If I send a GET itemquery request where the expression syntax is not correct, it
selects the first feature in the shapefile.  In this example, the query string
is not ended or closed.  e.g. &qstring=('[NAME]'='Ramsey   (unescaped version)

e.g.
http://www.seek.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/web/maps/testquery/testexpression.map&mode=itemquery&qlayer=counties&qstring=('%5bNAME%5d'%3d'Ramsey

If I send the same request as an itemNquery, MapServer selects all of the polys
in the shapefile.  e.g.
http://www.seek.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/web/maps/testquery/testexpression.map&mode=itemnquery&qlayer=counties&qstring=('%5bNAME%5d'%3d'Ramsey

At the same time, a properly formatted number comparison request returns the
correct feature: 
http://www.seek.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/web/maps/testquery/testexpression.map&mode=itemquery&qlayer=counties&qstring=(%5bFIPS%5d%3d27053)

And a properly formatted string comparison returns the correct feature: 
http://www.seek.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/web/maps/testquery/testexpression.map&mode=itemquery&qlayer=counties&qstring=('%5bNAME%5d'%3d'Ramsey')

Hey David: Do you know if this is still a problem? I'm just trying to dust off the zillion bugs we've got in the attic.
