Dirk is right, this was a huge pain brought on by a number of complaints
, most notably by Rob of macosxhints.com. We have fixed it but GL2 will
handle all this stuff in a way that requires no addslashes or
stripslashes in the code. The unfortunate implication though, is that
when GL2 does come out, old stories may be a bit borked. Before you
fret, we may very well try to 'fix' this inside the migration scripts
but remember, this is not a trivial fix giving the mess we have.
