It would be useful for the commit message to spell out in more detail
what exactly is going wrong.  How is the missing escape resulting in
the error we see.

What is the extra escape for, specifically?  '\1' is what we want to
give to sed, the '' should escape it for the shell.  I'm assuming
something else in the test scripts is removing one of these escapes,
but it's not obvious to me what exactly.
