This isn't exactly XSS, since you can't run script.  They are taking your data
from the 'q' parameter and doing a 302 redirect on it.  Like you point out,
this causes some confusion and phishers love stuff like this.

When you test pages that redirect, good test cases to try are HTTP Splitting
(http://www.packetstormsecurity.org/papers/general/whitepaper_httpresponse.pdf)
cases where you attempt to inject CRLFs.

I tried http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.microsoft.com and it got
directed. it seems that I received one such phishing email that makes
use of this to obfuscate the actual URL lately.
