Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system
is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Description:
------------
preg_replace strips double backslashes from the second passed argument,
but keeps all other backslashes

Reproduce code:
---------------
$var = "a\\\\b\\c\\\"";  # this is a string a\\b\c\"
$subj = "this is a {sample} text";
echo preg_replace("/\{sample\}/", $var, $subj);


Expected result:
----------------
this is a a\\b\c\" text

Actual result:
--------------
this is a a\b\c\" text
