We disabled magic quotes, and indeed, it no longer eats backslashes.  
Unfortunately, the output is now really bad. The backslashes are  
converted to HTML entities in the actual story *and* in the input box  
(along with, in the input box, all the other special characters).

I need to find a fix for this ASAP; my site is now unusable for any  
code submissions, and those are probably 30% of what we get :(.
