Problem with get_linksbyname

I’ve setup a Portal page on my site using the get_linksbyname tag. Each section of the page is a seperate list generated using its own set of variables. One list of links is for the web comics that I read and is generated using this snippet of code:
<?php get_linksbyname("Web Comics", "<li>", "</li>", "", show_images, "name", false, false, -1, show_updated); ?>

The problem is that one of the links that WordPress is generating via that tag is different from what I entered into WP’s Link Manager.
Real Link: https://ctrlaltdel-online.com/index.php?t=archives&date=last

Generated link: https://ctrlaltdel-online.com/index.php?t=archives & # 0 3 8 ;date=last

The difference is there at the end. Instead of generating a normal &; WP is doing it as & # 0 3 8 ; Naturally, this means I get a 404 message when clicking the link. Is this something that I need to submit as a bug? Also, any suggestions on how to fix the problem?

Note: When the link is generated there are no spaces in & # 0 3 8 ; but I had to put the spaces in for the forum to display the characters.
