Issue #7752 has been updated by Luc Suryo.
I can confirm that the crom tab indeed work with escaping the \ now
FYI: it did not work before, but since the system had to be rebooted for
security patches
it worked just fine after the reboot!
Im about to test the exec (sed) now and see if I get the needed result as there
is a mix of \, ', " and variable expansion $... and ${...}

}
exec { "comment-$name" :

and yet the crontab is cerated and is correct and the exec is executed
correctly too!
