I tentatively rewrote the message like so:

    Earlier, 452e225 (gitweb: fix esc_param, 2009-10-13) fixed CGI
    escaping rules used in esc_url.  A very similar logic exists in
    esc_param and needs to be fixed the same way.

It makes one wonder why they have to be separate functions, doesn't it,
though?
