Description fd 2009-06-01 14:29:49 UTC 
Code extracts usually start with the URI of the resource that contains the error. In the case of broken links, the list of broken links are output following the very same pattern.

This is highly confusing as it gives the false impression that the broken links are to be found within these resources, whereas they are to be found in the resource under test.

Well, yes and no. The new layout introduced to fix bug 6961 makes it clearer what the broken links are. That should not create any confusion.
