Google Code: reCAPTCHA for email addresses doesn't work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Follow a user's email address hyperlink, which has an ellipsis "..." in it 
to protect them from spam
2. Click the "..." hyperlink in their User Profile page, so that you can view 
their full address
3. Answer the reCAPTCHA correctly

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Upon answering the reCAPTCHA incorrectly, it should ask again, with a new 
challenge. This it does as expected.

But after answering the reCAPTCHA correctly, the "..." should disappear 
everywhere and be replaced with their full email address, for the remainder of 
the logged-on session. Instead, the reCAPTCHA acts as if you answered it 
correctly, but the ellipsis stays in their address, continuing to censor it, 
and is no longer linkified.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Tried accessing code.google.com with multiple browsers: Chrome, Firefox, and 
Opera. The same bug happened on all three, regardless of whether I was signed 
in with my Google account or not. Had a friend try as well, and he confirmed 
that the bug happened for him too.
