--- Comment #1 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> ---
There have definitely been changes in this area in 8.0.x and - if I recall
correctly - some bug fixes were applied to 8.0.x and not 7.0.x because we were
concerned that they might break existing code. It looks like you have stumbled
across one of these changes.

I do remember that my head hurt after working on this last time so it is going
to take me a little while to sort out why the current behaviour is as it is. If
it is correct, I should be able to explain why it is correct. If it is wrong
I'll work on a fix.

If the current behaviour is correct then you'll need to use something like
this:

<jsp:element name="span">
  <jsp:attribute name="data-text">A &amp;ndash B</jsp:attribute>
  <jsp:body> </jsp:body>
</jsp:element>
<span>A &amp;ndash; B</span>
