Subject: Not substitution \0, etc. in String.sub?

I have a string that happens to contain '\0', which I need to
substitute for a %x flag a la sprintf.  Unfortunately, the '\0' gets
substituted for the initial match.  So, this:

	path = 'C:\Artist\Album\01 Title.mp3'
	puts '%l'.sub(/%l/, path)

...gives me:

	C:\Artist\Album%l1 Title.mp3

I'm sure there's some way to disable the substitution that doesn't
involve contortions with escaping the backslashes, but I don't know
what it is.  Anyone?
