I tested it but I see nothing unusual. (with both of parser_simplepie and parser_common_syndication)
Please provide me the following information:
- the processors and the parsers fields' content from {feedapi} SQL table where the nid = the problematic feed's nid
- a screenshot of the encoding problem

Do you know http://simplepie.org/demo/ page? There is a SimpePie reference implementation. I supplied the feed URL and seems that even SimplePie cannot handle this feed.
I tried to find out the problem, I downloaded the raw XML:
"<description>SF.net Project News: Gaud&#38;#195;&#38;#173; - Database Visual Editor (gaudi project)"
According to this: http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html-spec/html-spec_13.html
&#38;#195; Capital A, tilde,
and really, FeedAPI shows a capital A and a tilde on the top if it. I think that feed is simply broken. SimplePie cannot handle it, Akgregator 8 a desktop RSS reader) too, FeedAPI too.
