in thread stat on file name containing single quotes

Not to mention octal character  \201 which is interpolated quite silently:

c:\@Work\Perl\monks>perl -wMstrict -le "my $fn = qq{E:\Music\Ray LaMontagne\2010 - God Willin' & The Creek Do +n't Rise}; print qq{'$fn'}; " Unrecognized escape \M passed through at -e line 1. Unrecognized escape \R passed through at -e line 1. 'E:MusicRay LaMontagneü0 - God Willin' & The Creek Don't Rise'
