note 58271 added to function.get-magic-quotes-gpc

If you have inputs like this in a form: <input type=hidden name="one[bl's]" value="stuff's" /> <input type=hidden name="bl's" value="val's" /> and you submit it, the NAMES of the variables will ALWAYS be magic-quoted, even if magic_quotes is OFF. However, the VALUES of the variables will be magic-quoted only if magic-quotes is turned on. In the above case, even if magic quotes is off, your POST data will look something like this: $_POST = array( one = array( bl\'s = stuff's ), bl\'s = val's ) Notice how the values of the variables were not magic-quoted, but the NAMES of the variables were quoted.
