open link of "Bug Reports" (or other) in new tab or window
click on "mark all messages read" link on index page

That's actually intended behavior. FUDforum does not use the unreliable and quite frankly hackable HTTP-Referer field, instead it logs your current location inside the session. When you open another tab/window you effectively change that location, so when you take an action in another window that requires a redirect you get taken to a different page. I suppose a hack could be put in place for things like "mark read", but I'd prefer to avoid adding hacks to the forum.
