Update of bug #19363 (project coreutils):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #2:

Closing.  The leading \ is indeed a feature, and has been documented in
coreutils md5sum and sha*sum for years when \\ or \n appear in a filename
(although I would like to see \r added to this list).  There is no more
elegant solution for handling arbitrary file names, and it is a security hole
if you can't handle arbitrary file names.
