test: Use printf "%b\n" instead of echo for strings with '\'
Use of echo with special characters is not portable. On a normal POSIX system, the behavior with backslash escaped strings is implementation-defined. On an XSI-conformant system, they must be interpreted. A way out is the printf command - printf "%b" specifies that the following argument is to be printed with backslash escapes interpreted. Gbp-Dch: ignore
