To address this, ut_string_fix was introduced as a temporary fix. Unfortunately, I am finding the same exact bug in ut_string_fix that is in both cd_string and ut_string. I'll attach my script as a file, but for posterity in the web archives, here's my short demo script, followed by the resulting output, which demonstrates the problem.
