Password Email Subject - Special Chars

[sp1ncycle]

The Subject in the email has htmlspecialchars and single quotes showup as this:
'

File: wp-login.php
Line: 166

$title = sprintf(__('[%s] Password Reset'), get_option('blogname'));

and

File: wp-login.php
Line: 211

$title = sprintf(__('[%s] Your new password'), get_option('blogname'));

The Fix:

$title = sprintf(__('[%s] Password Reset'), htmlspecialchars_decode(get_option('blogname'), ENT_QUOTES));

$title = sprintf(__('[%s] Your new password'), htmlspecialchars_decode(get_option('blogname'), ENT_QUOTES));

the charset also needs to be passed, with an @ in front of the function call to avoid warnings on older platforms.

It appears that almost all notifications sent from Wordpress to the admin have the same issue.
Such as "New User Registration" email.

This was fixed in 2.9 - #9913.

Closing as a duplicate of that ticket.
