Comment (by jltallon):

 wp-includes/post.php, line 822:

    $post_type = sanitize_user($post_type, true);

 ( whereas taxonomy.php, line 313 reads "$args [ ' object_type ' ] =
 (array) $object_type;" )

 The problem being that sanitize_user, in strict mode, changes the intended
 "custom post type name".
 Moreover, it looks like a C-P-T (or taxonomy, for that matter) name
 shouldn't contain the 'at' sign, right?

 Hence, I propose to introduce a new sanitize_object_name function (not
 filter) for this matter.

 (patch follows)
