This was 2.75 years ago and it solved my problem, which was:

More precisely, it at least worked until changeset "81fb14216e8c" (dated
2018-06-28 23:33:34 +0300) in the source repository.  However, after re-
installing Markdown from changeset "596be577c69c"  (dated 2018-12-22 15:
51:30 -0500) and re-running my little test script I'm now again getting

<p>&lt;&amp;&gt;:&amp; becomes &amp;</p>

What do I have to change this time?

Sincerely,
  Rainer
