When entering a comment which contains somewhere double quotes (""), these are
not displayed properly in the output later.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter a comment containing (") somewhere
2. Go back to the bug
3. The double quote changed to " in the comment.

Actual Results:  
(") -> (")

Expected Results:  
(") -> (")

I doubt that the quotes in this bug are displayed correctly, if anyone has
questions please contact me by mail for an example.

Well, seems that the main Bugzilla has no problems with that, perhaps this has
something to do with the patch from Bug 102685, which I have installed at my
location.

Checking this, setting severity to minor because it seems to be a local problem.
Severity: major → minor

Yep.  Bugzilla::Wiki::GetWikiLinks() does this:

     $text = &::value_quote($text);

But it's called from inside QuoteUrls(), which does this:

    $text = html_quote($text);

So it's getting escaped twice.
