Summary: sgmllib: Add "@" to valid attribute characters

Initial Comment:
According to http://www.w3.org/Addressing/rfc1808.txt, 
the query portion of an URL (and, therefore, and 
attribute) can contain any of the "safe", "extra", or 
"reserved" characters.

436621 added in some, but not all.  Current CVS adds in 
",", but is still missing "@".  Google groups provides 
examples URLS that use the @, as the end of the query 
is the article-ID, including the @.

Suggested patch just adds that "@" to the attrfind.
