This seemed to happen for any Application string that did not start with "C:". The error always seemed to happen one way but not the other. That is, it was only machine A that would ever see a backslash when a change on machine B caused an update but never would machine B see such a problem when a change on machine A caused an update. I couldn't see the problem with 10.30 but could with 10.40.
As mentioned, a reboot resolved the issue.
