I also use a non-standard port (55555 for security reasons) and thought
I would have the same problem, but am unable to reproduce it using
Apache and the current MoinMoin CVS.

I uploaded a logo.jpg to WikiSandBox, and refered to it as:
   attachment:logo.jpg
and on another page:
   attachment:WikiSandBox/logo.jpg

Both reproduce the requested image. Perhaps a thttpd problem or I don't
understand how to reproduce it?
