As there has been some changes to the RTE (IRRE description field) processing you probably need to link your hyperlinks within the RTE text again. At least if you like to have proper (RealUrl aware) links and not wrong ones like: http://domain.com/index.php?id=123

Some template marker have changed to match extension marker naming more precise:
