In such case, this should be reassigned to drupal6 as they are
applying the escapings in the wrong order, right?

Now, in such case... I wonder why I don't get this warning more
often. As I said in the report, the site in question had its comments
open for spammers (although they were piling for administrator's
authorization). I have closed the comments for now, but would surely
like to know what causes this.

FWIW, I do _not_ think this is caused by magic_quotes as a global
configuration setting, as it is explicitly turned off at the site in
question.
