New Comment:
This bug has been fixed in SVN. Since the websites are not directly
updated from the SVN server, the fix might need some time to spread
across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP.net better.

Just a note to clarify that the <pre> tags are NOT part of the problem.

Correction:
There is a double encoding. Instead of e.g. a "Л", there is a
"&#1051;" in the HTML.

Description:
------------
Hello,
if you use UTF-8 chars in a bug report or comment, the chars are changed
to html entities (correct). But the reports and comments are placed
between <pre> tags, and so a browser shows the entities and not the
UTF-8 chars.
This is a problem, because you can't see if a bug reporter is using
entities or UTF-8 chars in the report. So you can have a lot of
confusion. An Example can be Bug #43148.
Regards,
Carsten
