Subject: Double HTML encoding in R Bug Tracking Submission form (PR#11517)

The "New Bug Report" form available from http://bugs.r-project.org/ 
appears to double encode the HTML of the "body" text area of the form.

This behaviour can be seen in submission ID # 11515, where (as an 
example) "??" is converted to "&#916;" in the browser view or 
"&amp;#916;" in the HTML source code. Conversion to "&#916;" in the HTML 
source is sufficient to render "??" in the browser output.
