#7631: Values in autolinked profile fields have characters improperly encoded for
display

 Severity:  normal            |   Keywords:
------------------------------+----------------------------
 When entering a character that encodes to an ASCII code (like an apstrophe
 into `'`) into an xProfile field that is autolinked, the semicolon at
 the end of the ASCII code can confuse the parser in
 `xprofile_filter_link_profile_data()`, resulting in malformed links and
 display text.

 It may be possible to work around this with some `wptexturize` juggling.
