ConfigParser - ParsingError - escaping characters - evil colons

[Volucris]

I'm using ConfigParser and using filenames as keys. The problem being that
the parser misinterprets the colons when reading the keys. I escaped the
colons with dollar signs, but I'm still having problems. This is the raised
exception:

    ParsingError: File contains parsing errors: Sipz.gdf
     [line  2]: 'c$\\sem\\test.txt = c$\\sem\\test.txt\n'
     [line  3]: 'c$\\sem\\bad.file = c$\\sem\\bad.file\n'

These are the only two lines with full file paths in them, so I'm pretty
sure that's the problem. Does anyone know what can be done with those evil
colons?
