Not an answer, but an observation on my part of a similar behaviour: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
On my box, the "first" load of the issue would display the right thing |
| 15 |
(substituting the proper text for all the escape characters), but if, |
| 16 |
say, I type in an invalid username/password combo, login will wait a |
| 17 |
few seconds (like it is told to do) and display the banner again. But |
| 18 |
this time, the escaped characters will be displayed like what you |
| 19 |
have there. But if I once again log-in correctly, and then log-out, |
| 20 |
the banner displayed on that VC would be correct again. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I can't figure out what's wrong either. |

Man, I broke my G string trying to finger a minor... |

Now my guitar is useless. |
