            Bug ID: 87393
           Summary: Cannot pass a single semicolon as service command

the patch

Due to erroneous unescaping, the "\;" argument to a service command line, which
should be translated to ";", usually gives "; " instead. Some programs react to
this badly.
This happens because argument length isn't corrected when discarding the
backslash. I've attached a one-line patch that should fix the issue.
