Description

The bug is described in detail at ​http://priyadi.net/archives/2005/02/25/wordpress-15-bugs/.

The excerpt:
I found an irritating bug in Wordpress 1.5: ampersands in blogroll URLs don’t get properly escaped. Thus, blogrolls that contains URL with ampersand in it don’t validate.

Quick fix: modify wp-includes/links.php around line 206 like this (add the line with + in front of it)
