XTAGS space amp; space problem

[Moore, Howard]

Greetings,
 
Anyone notice XTAGS parses an ampersand in a URL then seems to put a space
on either side of it?
 
Behavior seems to happen if amp; or & is used.
 
output example: http://server/dosomething.jsp?name=bubba
<http://server/dosomething.jsp?name=bubba>  & id=47
 
The SPACE before and after the ampersand breaks the URL as  you have
probably guessed.
 
 
 
Has this been addressed before or has anyone experienced this behavior?
 
 
Howard
