Exactly, either @[EMAIL PROTECTED] or @[EMAIL PROTECTED]

This applies to all arguments of custom-defined macros (i.e. everything inside 
@warning, @q, @notation, etc.)

If they work now: Why fix a running system?
@code is not a macro, but part of the texinfo spec. The problem only appears 
with self-defined macros, where the arguments expansion is broken.

So, should we use @bs{} or @value{backslash}?
Does this problem really appear only once in our whole documentation? There's 
only that one FIXME in tutorial, and @value{backslash} is never used at 
all...
