wp_nonce_ays()'s back link is broken

Description

If a nonce fails, the "Please try again." link on the error page is outputted incorrectly.

Here's what I got for example: 

<p>Your attempt to edit this page: &quot;Page Title&quot; has failed.</p><p><a href='/wp-admin/page.php?action=edit#038;post=91'>Please try again.</a></p>

If you click that URL, you get a 404 due to the #038; presumably.

The links invalid (Should have a n & in there), but a 404 shouldnt be raised, instead you should get "You attempted to edit a page that doesn't exist. Perhaps it was deleted?"

Replying to DD32:

Yeah, that's what I get. Sorry, been a long day.

Is this still broken?

2.6.1 has been released, moving to 2.6.2 milestone

I still get the "attempt to edit has failed" screen from time to time. I'll try and remember to check the nonce next time it happens.
