Unfortunately it does not work for me.  
I waited for 1.9.0 release to perform tests on stable version. I added both lines without no success.

Here it is a list of static links from main page of our website, all of them broken.

When the user posts similar links in our forum, those links become dead.

Could anybody reproduce this bug?

p.s. I found weird google stats, some URLs return different codes:

1. _200_ for anonyms;
2. redirect _301_ to privacy-policy page for logged users;
3. _403_ for Google bot  
example urls:
