Post absolute URL fails in pagination

[GoogleCodeExporter]

You can not directly access a post by the get_absolute_url method if the
thread view is paginated. As a result the 'view last post' links do not
work in the forum and thread list views.

Initially I tried adding ?page=last to the end of the links, but the post
id anchor breaks this.

/#1234?page=last does not work.
/?page=last#1234 does work.

This will at least make 'view last post' work

Thanks for the patch. i've checked it in, and will work on a better patch 
sometime
soon to handle cases like having a permalink to a post, links in e-mails, etc.

Patch added in SVN r44.
