That's not what I am concerned about.  find never produces a "\$"
sequence.  However, if the input for some reason contained a "\$", it
would be nice if the script either rejected it or interpreted it in
some way that did not involve an unexpected interpolation.

I wasn't particularly worried about manually-entered escapes, but I saw
an easy way to improve the parser, so I went ahead and checked-in a
change that avoids the problem with characters such as '$' while not
introducing any unexpected behavior for already-backslash-escaped
characters.
