It's been reported by someone else last week, but I haven't looked
into it yet.

One thing you could check is the file

    ~hobbit/server/web/acknowledge_form

which holds the template for the acknowledgment form. It should
have this line near the top:

   <FORM METHOD="GET" ACTION="&REQUEST_URI">

which in theory should cause the form to be posted to the same URL as
was used to get the form itself. This was changed from 4.0-RC1 to RC2,
so if you have upgraded from RC1 to RC2 you may still have the old
version installed. In that case, just copy the file over from the
hobbit-4.0-RC2/hobbitd/webfiles/ directory.
