[pmwiki-users] apostrophes getting doubled, backslashes stripped

Something weird has begun happening on one of my sites, since I changed 
hosts a few days ago.  Whenever I submit changes to a page, all 
apostrophes (') get doubled (''), and all double backslashes (\\) are 
turned into single backslashes (\).

It seems to me the most likely culprit would be magic_quotes_sybase: 
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/sybase.configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-sybase
However, phpinfo shows that this feature is turned off:
http://www.psduua.org/info.php
All the magic_quotes settings are the same as on our previous host, 
where the problem did not occur:
https://69.89.31.179/~psduuaor/info.php

What else could be causing this problem?  Any ideas are welcome.

The site is running pmwiki-2.2.0-beta68 .  I have not made any 
configuration changes to the wiki since changing hosts.

Thanks in advance!
