Contact sync incorrect when there is a multi-part first name

When testing syncing of my contact list on the iphone using the  
Synthesis client, I noticed a problem with multi-part names.

As a test case, I deleted all contacts in Turba and did a sync from  
the iphone to the server.

There were two (out of about 250) contacts that had multi-part first  
names in the form "Dick and Jane" or "Harry & Sally". Both of them  
resulted in the Turba contact having a first name consiting of the  
first part of the first name (e.g. "Dick"), and the last name of "and"  
or "&". The rest of the first name and the last name appears to have  
been lost.

My version information is:

Horde: 3.3.4-RC1
Turba: 2.3.1

Here is an example of one of these contacts from /tmp/sync/data.txt

Input received from client (text/x-vcard):
BEGIN:VCARD^M

input converted for server (text/x-vcard):
BEGIN:VCARD^M

Please let me know if you need more information.
