Well, where is VIRTUAL_URL documented? Why doesn't Plohn do something 
sane if it's not there?

It's probably some code in the publisher or vhm. Maybe it's something 
that didn't get merged from a branch or the trunk.

Your best bet is to come up with minimal (ie: no plone, no cookie 
crumbler, etc) way to reproduce this and file a bug report in the collector.

Oh, and grab yourself a copy of grep and see where this should be 
defined ;-)

cheers,
