Double ouch, you're right again!

  $ x=`echo a.b | sed 's/\./\\./g'`; printf '%s\n' "$x"
  a.b

I should really give up attemping to understand how the `\' escaping
works inside backticks... I've been burned so many times, sigh... :-(

And maybe it's about time to write a configure check that looks for a
POSIX shell, so that we can run our tests with it and dispense with
the clumsy workarounds for exotic bugs and limitations; most of the
framework is already in place anyway (e.g., automatic re-execing of
tests with the configure-time shell), so that shouldn't be too
difficult.  But I'm cooking another patch right now, so this will
have to wait.
