Comment (by matthewmi11er):

 I think the change to '''get_terms()''' fixes the error in the specific
 circumstances. However what may be happening (if I'm tracing everything
 properly) is that '''wp_set_post_terms()''' is called twice when updating
 the post. The first time the term name is passed to it, which fails to
 update the tags properly. The second time the term_id is passed which
 succeeds.

 Moving this to a new issue may make sense (I'd be fine with that). I don't
 have a specific demonstration but I think it will show up anywhere
 '''wp_set_object_terms()''' gets called with the term name (instead of
 terrm_id) and the term name has an ampersand and the slug has been
 modified.
