No, \ is not special at all in XSLT it is treated as a normal character.

Well that depends on what you are using to display. (It doesn't look
like html) If you are using a display language in which \ is a special
character then you just need to generate the required escape sequence to
print a \ but that's a question for your (unspecified) display language,
not for xslt.
