Well, yes, of course, that's what the "_gpc" suffix stands for:

«Sets the magic_quotes state for GPC (Get/Post/Cookie) operations. When
magic_quotes are on, all ' (single-quote), " (double quote), \
(backslash) and NUL's are escaped with a backslash automatically.»

It was already bad enough that way :)
