Subject: String substitution bug

(Ruby 1.8.1, Linux and Windows)

    puts "a\\b".sub( /\\/, "\\\\" )
yields
    a\b
(I expected: a\\b)

But
    puts "a\\b".sub( /\\/, "\\x\\" )
yields
    a\x\b
(as I would expect.)

BTW: Mails to ruby-bugs@ruby-lang.org are rejected. Is there a new mail 
adress for bugs?
