Bug in bash

[Bruce Jackson <bjackson@pobox.com>]

If I do the following:  echo "bob\n" the output is:
bob\n

I tried this on HP-UX and Solaris and the output is:
bob

The newline is added.  None of the Backslash escape sequence work (ie \a 
\b \t etc).  It works fine with pdksh and csh.  I am not sure where the 
bug is coming from.

TIA
