It's the stupid Google Groups web interface, which sometime in the past couple months stared translating non-HTML into HTML entities in the plaintext response.

Sometimes I take the extra time to correct the problem, other times I copy-paste into Vim and insert the quote markers automatically, and sometimes I just don't bother.

I'm considering abandoning the web interface for posting if it's not resolved soon.
