My server outputs a banner when I login on it via ssh. This is:

+------------------- Willkommen auf ---------------------+
|  _    _ _    _               ___                       |
| | |  (_) |__| |__ _  _ ___  / __| ___ _ ___ _____ _ _  |
| | |__| | '_ \ '_ \ || (_-<  \__ \/ -_) '_\ V / -_) '_| |
| |____|_|_.__/_.__/\_, /__/  |___/\___|_|  \_/\___|_|   |
|                   |__/                                 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+

KDE 4.1.2's konsole escapes the backslashes in this banner and the following string is printed instead:

+------------------- Willkommen auf ---------------------+
|  _    _ _    _               ___                       |
| | |  (_) |__| |__ _  _ ___  / __| ___ _ ___ _____ _ _  |
| | |__| | '_ \\ '_ \\ || (_-<  \\__ \\/ -_) '_\\ V / -_) '_| |
| |____|_|_.__/_.__/\\_, /__/  |___/\\___|_|  \\_/\\___|_|   |
|                   |__/                                 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+

KDE 3.5.10's konsole displays is as it should.
