New description:

 Seems like a simple enough fix for anyone who is familiar with TCL and the
 base plumbing. I'm not unfortunately.

 Consider the following:
 {{{
 PortSystem          1.0
 name                backslash-test
 version             1
 categories          devel
 platforms           darwin
 description         tests backslashes in filenames for the activate target

 fetch               {}
 checksum            {}
 use_configure       no
 build               {}
 destroot {
     touch "${destroot}${prefix}/share/back\\slash"
 }
 }}}

 Which produces the following results
 {{{
 $ sudo port destroot backslash-test
 --->  Fetching distfiles for backslash-test
 --->  Verifying checksums for backslash-test
 --->  Extracting backslash-test
 --->  Configuring backslash-test
 --->  Building backslash-test
 --->  Staging backslash-test into destroot
 $ find backslash-test -type f
 backslash-test/work/.macports.backslash-test.state
 backslash-test/work/destroot/opt/local/share/back\slash
 $ sudo port install backslash-test
 --->  Activating backslash-test @1_0
 Error: org.macports.activate for port backslash-test returned: Image
 error: Source file /opt/local/var/macports/software/backslash-
 test/mpextractFapBvhDF/opt/local/share/back lash does not appear to exist
 (cannot lstat it).  Unable to activate port backslash-test.
 Please see the log file for port backslash-test for details:
     /opt/local/var/macports/logs
 /_Volumes_case_src_macports_devel_backslash-test/backslash-test/main.log
 To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
     http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
 Error: Processing of port backslash-test failed
 }}}

 I've attached a full log of an install of the above portfile from a clean
 state.
