Problem setting inline feature from URL

[Doyon, Jean-Francois]

Hello,

Using MapServer 4.6.1, I'm trying to set the points of an inline feature
through the URL using map_layername_feature_points, but mapserver crashes :(

Putting the points straight in the mapfile works fine, so it seems to have
to do with the fact I'm doing it through the URL ...

The layer definition looks like this:

LAYER
  NAME coordinatepointer
  TYPE point
  STATUS off
  METADATA
    LEGEND_ORDER "-1"
    CHECKABLE "0"
  END
  CLASS
    SYMBOL arrow
    SIZE 30
    COLOR 0 0 0
  END
  FEATURE
    POINTS 1510565.6023157164 -170397.98957041 END
  END
END

And the URL to the CGI, when needed, will have this added to it:

&map_coordinatepointer_status=default&map_coordinatepointer_feature_points=1
510565.6023157164%20-170397.98957041

Without "map_coordinatepointer_feature_points" everything works fine ...
With it, Apache gives me an Internal Server Error, premature end of script
hearders.

The debugging looks like this (Thanks for the tip Tom!):

Any ideas?
