Summary:                    File = \</path/backup.dontDELETE in the fileset
produces the catalog job to fail
Description: 
as set in the doc, File = \</path/backup.dontDELETE should work fine, but it
does not. The job works fine, but the catalog job failed instead with the error:

  2011-10-27 16:43:04   comp-dir JobId 10757: shell command: run BeforeJob
"/usr/local/bacula/bin/make_catalog_backup.pl MyCatalog"

  Build OS:               x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu ubuntu 9.04
  JobId:                  10757
  Job:                    BackupCatalog.2011-10-27_16.43.02_21
  Backup Level:           Full

everytime i tried to run the job it failed.
Workaround, use quotes in the fileset and double \

Steps to Reproduce: 
FileSet {
   Name = "machine_fs"
   Include {
        Options { compression=GZIP }
        File = \</path/backup.dontDELETE
        }
}

Job {
  Name = "BackupCatalog"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Full
  Client = comp-fd
  FileSet="Catalog"
  Schedule = "weeklybackup"
  # This creates an ASCII copy of the catalog
  # Arguments to make_catalog_backup.pl are:
  #  make_catalog_backup.pl <catalog-name>
  Storage = disk1
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = databases_1
  RunBeforeJob = "/usr/local/bacula/bin/make_catalog_backup.pl MyCatalog"
  # This deletes the copy of the catalog
  RunAfterJob  = "/usr/local/bacula/bin/delete_catalog_backup"
  Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/working/%n.bsr"
  Priority = 11                   # run after main backup
}
