That must be some setting in (your?) bash:

$ sh -c 'echo '\''foo\nbar'\'''
foo
bar

$ bash -c 'echo '\''foo\nbar'\'''
foo\nbar

$ dash -c 'echo '\''foo\nbar'\'''
foo
bar

... after a bit digging ...

$ bash -c 'shopt -s xpg_echo; echo '\''foo\nbar'\'''
foo
bar

$ bash -c 'shopt -u xpg_echo; echo '\''foo\nbar'\'''
foo\nbar


you could try adding  shopt -u xpg_echo  into test-lib.sh
