Actually your HTML code is what is broken here, you should use this:
<a href="&gt;">123</a>

But it's still valid html code, isn't it?
HTML 4 specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40) allow to use "<" and ">" within attribute values...

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This is how strip_tags() works, get used to it.
