Every time I look at the login prompt, the banner looks a bit off. It's
not much, but it's enough for me to notice and sigh internally at the
unroundness and leakiness of the letters, and I find the letters a bit
hard to parse.
The reason for this appearance is that backslashes in the banner output
are replaced by backticks when it is written to /etc/issue, probably as
a quick-fix to avoid variable expansion by getty.
This patch series brings the login banner back to its usual appearance.
