Summary: Web member list has extra bad characters via email subscribe

Initial Comment:
When I subscribe via an email command with a 
password, then the user shows up in the memberlist 
with extra characters like:
u ' and 
The members who were subscribed using the web 
interface mass-subscription do NOT have any extra 
characters at all.

The user still gets emails from the list, but when you try 
and click on the user in the admin web interface it will 
not go to their user page (goes to the General Options 
page instead)

Here is the table row from the Mailman admin interface 
where you can see the extra characters:

<tr>
      <td><center>u'<INPUT 
name="amember at ap.org_unsub" type="CHECKBOX" 
value="off" >'</center></td>
      <td>u'<a 
href="u\'https://lists.some.org/mailman/options/hrep-
agr/amember--at--
ap.org\'">u\'amember at ap.org\'</a><br><INPUT 
name="amember at ap.org_realname" type="TEXT" 
value="" size="23" ><INPUT name="user" type="HIDDEN" 
value="amember%40ap.org" >'</td>
      <td>u'<center><INPUT 
name="amember at ap.org_mod" type="CHECKBOX" 
value="on" CHECKED ></center>'</td>
      <td><center>u'<INPUT 
name="amember at ap.org_hide" type="CHECKBOX" 
value="off" >'</center></td>
      <td><center>u'<INPUT

    </tr>
