 > Please put in a constant or function that can be checked to determine
 when slashes are added.  Otherwise there is no elegant way to work around
 this issue and the hole just gets deeper and deeper as everyone continues
 to blindly assume quotes are added.  As it stands, I'm doing
 > {{{
 > if(function_exists('wp_magic_quotes')) $gpc=true; else $gpc=false;

 That's what we have to put up with, because the WP devs have created this

 to work around something like that.
