This is because preg_replace() runs addslashes() internally on the captured 
subpatterns before substrituting them into the replacement string. It didn't used to 
but a few people complained that it was really hard to pass $n to a function because 
of single and double-quote conflicts. To be frank, I'm not sure how to solve this 
problem adequately, one group of people want the addslashes() run, the other one 
doesn't.

Simple problem - the script:

<?php
echo preg_replace("/'/e", "\"$0\"", "'");
// that's double-quote, slash, single-quote, slash, e, double-quote
// then double-quote, escaped double-quote, $0, escaped double-quote, double-quote
// then double-quote, single-quote, double-quote
// meaning = "replace all occurrences of single-quote with the same string matched 
during the search - i.e. single-quote"
?>

should produce one plain single-quote, but instead it produces an escaped 
single-quote.

No other character seems to exhibit this behavior.

Configuration:
 './configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php4' '--with-mysql' 
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/sbin/apxs' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-gd=/usr/local' 
'--with-zlib-dir=shared' '--with-ttf' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' 
'--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-tiff-dir=/usr/local' '--with-mcrypt' 
'--with-pdflib'

No other unusual configuration setups
