Comment(by respice):

 Yes,  the \\t sequence is replaced with a tab and the path is corrupted.

 Here is the telnet output.

 PROTOCOLINFO
 250-PROTOCOLINFO 1
 250-AUTH METHODS=COOKIE,SAFECOOKIE,HASHEDPASSWORD
 COOKIEFILE="C:\\Users\\Respice\\AppData\\Roaming\\tor\\control_auth_cookie"
 250-VERSION Tor="0.2.3.25"
 250 OK

 Here it is from the debugger ...

 Before stem escapement
 "next_entry"    str:
 C:\\\\Users\\\\Respice\\\\AppData\\\\Roaming\\\\tor\\\\control_auth_cookie

 After stem escapement
 "next_entry"    str: C:\\Users\\Respice\\AppData\\Roaming\\
 or\\control_auth_cookie

 Thanks for your great work!
