Comment (by M66B):

 ''wp_update_user'' seems to call ''add_magic_quotes'' for all user meta
 values (maybe this is new behavior in a recent version of WordPress).
 According to the
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/update_user_meta
 documentation] of ''update_user_meta'' "''Arrays and objects will be
 automatically serialized''".

 So, either this bug should be fixed or the documentation should be
 updated.
