Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php In the first case the extension receives replacement string \\\ which is basically \\, since last backslash doesn't quote anything. And in the second case it's \\\\ which is interpolated into \\.
