 There is an inconsistency in the way the functions
 {{{next_post_link()}}}/{{{previous_post_link()}}} (used in single.php) and
 {{{next_posts_link()}}}/{{{previous_posts_link()}}} (used in index.php and
 archive.php) are used in the default themes.

 The current behaviour (in the default themes) is as follows:

 - next_post_link() and previous_post_link() generate an anchor tag with
 post title plus either {{{»}}} or {{{«}}} '''outside''' the
 tag.

 - next_posts_link() and previous_posts_link() generate an anchor tag with
 post title and {{{»}}} or {{{«}}} '''inside''' the anchor tag.

 Since these functions are all used in the same visual space
 (div.navigation) the position of the {{{»}}}/{{{«}}} (inside
 out outside of the anchor tag) should be consistent. Personally I prefer
 having the additional text inside the anchor tag.

 It just requires changing the arguments supplied to the functions in the
 themes. Proposed patch to follow.
