rh#1251621

Steve Grubb of Red Hat reports:

When auditing the filesystem the names of files are logged. These filenames 
can contain escape sequences, when viewed using the ausearch programs "-i" 
option for example this can result in the escape sequences being processed 
unsafely by the terminal program being used to view the data.
