Not a bug. Usage questions should go to the mailing list.

Try playing with the parser option which controls entity reference expansion. In 
theory you should be able to persuade the parser to build this as a DOM 
EntityReference node which in turn contains a text node containing the & 
character. But not all parsers handle the builtin entity definitions the same 
way they do those created by the user, and a DOM builder _is_ allowed to flatten 
these.

Actually, flattening may be what you want in any case. A DOM serializer should 
see the & character and translate it back into &amp; for you... and within your 
application you probably want to work with the data, not the serialized 
representation.
