Description:
------------
stripslashes is supposed to remove backslashes added by addslashes():
from the doc:
   stripslashes — Un-quote string quoted with addslashes()
   addslashes — Quote string with slashes


stripslashes return values from the documentation:
Returns a string with backslashes stripped off. (\' becomes ' and so
on.) Double backslashes (\\) are made into a single backslash (\).

The problem is that it removes single backslashes that are not escaping
any quotes/slashes.
For example, "this one \ that one" should stay the same after running
stripslashes(), but it actually is stripping the backslash, so the end
result of stripslashes("this one \ that one") is "this one that one".

the backslash in "this one \ that one" is part of the original text and
is not a backslash addslashes() would add.










Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$str = "this one \ should stay. it\'s a \"test\"";
$str = stripslashes($str);
var_dump($str);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(37) "this one \ should stay. it's a "test""

Actual result:
--------------
string(36) "this one should stay. it's a "test""
