I've attached the patch. It changes the htmlize function. As far as I
can see it is being used for diary entries, user pages, rss feed and
internal messaging system. If any of those should _not_ include the
nofollow tag we'd need to add a parameter to the function or something
like that. I went for the simplest possible way for now.

Cheers,
Lars
