I just noticed that a street name with an apostrophe in it (which I
may or may not have created several weeks ago) is now displayed by
Osmarender as O'Bryan. Mapnik correctly displays it as O'Bryan
and it appears in Potlatch as O'Bryan. By now I don't remember whether
I added the name for that particular street, nor, if so, how I entered
the apostrophe. I am sure that I didn't explicitly type in "'".
I'm pretty sure that the apostrophe was properly displayed by
Osmarender a few weeks ago, but I can't be 100% certain.
Should HTML character entities like ' be expected to be properly
handled by Osmarender? I see that accented characters are displayed
properly in other street names, but I don't know how they were
entered.
