Description Volker Sobek (weld) 2014-03-30 00:16:56 UTC 
commit 35066ed6c6b51317f49069f2564c547aa309f9f1 replaced entities, but
escaped the replacement text also inside literals, which resulted in the
escaping '\' to also appear in the documentation.

Command used to find possibly wrong escapes in literals:
find . -name '*.c' -exec grep -n '\*.*`.*\\[^[:alnum:]].*`' '{}' + | \
grep --color '\\[^[:alnum:]]'
