It seems that parse_str is escaping hard slash characters (%5C).

Try this:

<?
	parse_str("value=%5C");
	echo $value,"\n";
?>

I don't think this is the correct behaviour for this function.  Even if it
is, it seems to be the same problem when parsing values passed in URIs.

Turn off magic quotes. You are seeing the effect of this option in this case.
