Hello,

Bacula version 1.38.9 has two new "features" in this area. One is that the
Director prohibits backslashes in filenames, unless you enclose them in
double quotes.  This should avoid a good number of such cases,
unfortunately not all. The second is that during restores, the FD converts
backslashes to forward slashes on the fly so that those files that were
improperly backed up are restored ...
