My permalink would seem to be different than your permalink, and if I gave you my permalink, it might not even point to the post, for you, if that post happened to be on a different page for you.

I just tried changing my page length and a permalink broke. I had the default page length (I think is 30) and copied a permalink for the first article on a page 2; the name contained "2".
I changed my page length to 5 articles per page.
I tried to use the permalink I had copied and instead of pointing to the 31st article in the thread, it took me to the 6th article (the first on page 2). It dutifully went to page two and didn't find the #postPPPPPPP there.
This seems very bad. (Edit: I emailed Fraser, so he can get an early start on his bad day.)
