The ';' is used as a separator for other resources, so ';' was included
(undocumented) for the "list"-type resources for consistancy. I also
never expected anyone to try to use entity references in something like
MONTHSABR. But it makes sense.
Just delete the ';' in the regex to split(). I'll removed it for
the next releases, since its use is not documented for the resources
the get_list_content is used.
