[SOLVED] Incorrect URLs Being Generated for Navigation Tabs on Index Pages

Scenario:

WP 4.1, Montezuma 1.2.4
Set permalinks to Default.
Do either a search or view a Category index page where the number of posts/results span across more than one index page.

Results:
Clicking on a navigation tab (Next, Prev, or any of the numbered tabs) on the navigation bar does not move you to another page. The URL changes, but the screen does not.

This behavior is not seen on a normal index (i.e., blog) page. It is also not seen on the TwentyFourteen theme.

Reason:
It appears that an incorrect URL is being generated for the tabs:

Code:

http://sandbox.geefamily.net/?cat=1#038;paged=2

Instead of the #038;, an ampersand should be output so the URL looks like this:

Code:

http://sandbox.geefamily.net/?cat=1&paged=2
