This is wrong. Either backslash-escape the space or use quotes, but not
both. You are embedding an actual backslash in the value, which is not
what you want. The purpose of the backslash is not to exist in the
value of the variable, but to tell the shell not to treat the space as
separating two arguments.
export FOO="some string"
export FOO=some\ string
