-Subject: [PARSER] Remove backslash before } in double-quotes in variable
-
-The backslash prevents the closing brace from terminating the
-substitution, therefore it should be removed.
-
-FreeBSD sh test expansion/plus-minus2.0 starts working, no other tests
-are affected.
-
-Example:
-  printf "%s\n" ${$+\}} ${$+"\}"} "${$+\}}"
-should print } three times, without backslashes.
