Comment (by ryan):

 backslashit() is always used in a PCRE context, at least within WP core,
 so this would work fine.  I wonder if plugins are using backslashit() in
 other contexts though. Perhaps we should introduce preg_backslashit().
 Also, should slash only the digit that occurs at the head of the string?
 That's the only unsafe one, I believe.
