Bug description:  Missing backslashes in manual pages

Description:
------------
It appears that backslash characters are being sporadically suppressed 
on documentation pages. This is especially noticeable in the 
documentation about namespaces; I was highly confused by much of the 
language until I realized some very important characters were missing 
from the code examples and descriptions!

For an illustration of the problem, see:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.faq.php

Examples 1 and 2 are supposed to illustrate two different syntaxes, but 
because of this problem are identical.

Nearly every page of the namespace section of the manual has an example 
of the issue.
