When you try to get an empty minecart to travel through a nether portal, it works perfectly fine, but it doesn't work if there is a villager inside the minecart. I haven't tested this with any other mobs yet. In my situation, I am transporting villagers from the nether back to the overworld.

relates to MC-67
As Skaijie mentioned, this relates to MC-67 which has recently been fixed in Java, so it can also be considered vanilla-parity.
I don't think that's a bug, that's how it's been for a while.
