Before I submit this to the bug tracker, I just want to make sure other people can reproduce the issue and it’s not just a problem with my database or something.
Putting apostrophe-s after linked text to make it possessive outputs as a curly single quote facing the wrong direction within the entries tag.
For example, if you wanted to write a blog entry about “IMDb‘s new layout” the apostrophe would be a curly single quote curling toward the s. It’s most obvious with fonts like Times New Roman and Georgia.
Issue also exists in EE 1.6.9
