Looks like you somehow lost the interpretation of the &emdash; character.
Look at the URL provided and you should see the &emdash; instead of a real dash
character.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look at that page

Actual Results:  
I see &emdash; inline

Expected Results:  
Transform the &emdash; in a long minus sign (---)

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/sgml/entities.html says there's an entity — but
doesn't mention anything about &emdash;.
