John says he's done something in HEAD for this:

commit 40f5f19535c580a746d4822cf356e2bbca7fe2dd
Author: John MacFarlane <jgm at berkeley.edu>
Date:   Tue May 12 13:28:12 2009 -0700

    Set redirect properly after account creation.

    If they go from Login form to Register form, they should
    not be redirected back to Login form.
