The bug
The rotation for all entities is no longer updated causing them to face in the wrong direction.
When you lure a pig with a carrot on a stick, the head of the pig is not aligned correctly. When the pig reaches you and stops moving the body rotates to face the same direction as the head.

Please retitle this bug to something general like 'mobs no longer turn their heads', since it applies to all mobs.
Affects Villagers and Zombies, they do rotate their heads, but it is offset, so that they aren't appearing to look at an entity or a specific direction.
If you look at the screenshot: 2016-02-10_16.25.41.png the Zombies are attacking me, but they should be attacking the Villager, because it's the closest target. That is a pretty serious bug, see MC-96368
There's still a bug, but this isn't happening anymore. The bug is that the mob turns your head very fast and crazy. Srry for bad english, i'm brazilian.
