username for authentication is beeing wrongly escaped

           Summary: username for authentication is beeing wrongly escaped
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0-HEAD
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: mod_auth
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


If you have a user say Domain\username then a value of Domain\\username will be
passed to the underlying authentication module and so authentication doesn't
succeed.
This happens with every backslash given anywhere e.g. \username will be
translated to \\username.
The request_req *r contains the username in r->user and this is where the
authentication modules like mod_auth_ldap get the wrong username.
