note 42413 added to function.system

Problems with backslash: Using PHP for shell-scripting seems to require a quad-escape for backslashes. Example: system("mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,password=xxx,uid=xxx \\\\\\\\SERVER\\\\drive ./mnt"); The string delived to "mount" is "\\SERVER\drive". So the PHP-parser needs a backslash for every backslash and system() needs it again. Hope this helps someone!
