Description:
------------
Including SSI-files via the virtual()-directive into PHP-scripts causes "&" to result as "&".

Reproduce code:
---------------
in the PHP-Code:
...
  virtual("../header.html.inc?Veröffentlichungen");
...

in the SSI-file located at "../header.html.inc":

<head>
  <title><!--#echo var="QUERY_STRING" --></title>
</head>
...

Expected result:
----------------
I excepted the resulting HTML-page to look like:

<head>
  <title>Ver&ouml;ffentlichungen</title>
</head>
...

Actual result:
--------------
What I get is:

<head>
  <title>Ver&amp;ouml;ffentlichungen</title>
</head>
...

This is called "urlencoded" and is expected.
I don't see any bugs here.

So any call of virtual("foo.html?p=1&q=2"); will result in a apache-subrequest for "foo.html?p=1&amp;q=2" ? The query string is not the same any more.

It is not "urlencoded":
URL-encoding transforms "&" to "%26" and ";" to "%3B". This is not the case here.

And, Apache does it right:
Within SSI-files the usage of

<!--#include virtual="../header.html.inc?Ver&ouml;ffentlichungen" -->

works fine, as expected.
