[JENKINS-36569] Add 'Slaves' axis is broken

Whenever I try to add Axis 'Slaves' to the project nothing happens on the UI and in the browser console there is an error:

hudson-behavior.js:384 Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected tokengeval @ hudson-behavior.js:384(anonymous function) @ hudson-behavior.js:591next @ hudson-behavior.js:609sequencer @ hudson-behavior.js:612evalInnerHtmlScripts @ hudson-behavior.js:597(anonymous function) @ hudson-behavior.js:568onSuccess @ bind.js:57respondToReadyState @ prototype.js:1657onStateChange @ prototype.js:1600(anonymous function) @ prototype.js:414

It has been working before with older version(s) of Jenkins (don't remember exactly but the version was below 2.0).
