Can't escape "}" character

Copied from https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/292074/how-do-escape-character

I'm trying to make the following text as monospace in JIRA

/foo/{bar}

According to the WikiRendererHelpAction page, I should wrap my text in {{}}. Ok so now I have:

{{/foo/

{bar}}}

Unfortunately this doesn work. I get

{{/foo
{bar}

}}

So I try escaping the last "}" as "}".

/foo/{bar}

This almost works, all but the last "}" is monospace. I also tried escaping both

{ and }

/foo/{bar}

But this has the same results - the last "}" is not monospaced. Is there a way to make all of /foo/

{bar}

monospace, or is this a JIRA bug?
