Again, thanks for the report.

The problem was a mishandling of a cache, with the result that the raw
string handling code mistakenly believed it was within a string when it
wasn't, at a critical point in the file.

Would you please try out the following patch and confirm that it fixes
the problem, or let me know what's still not working properly.


At least in the case I tested, the patch appears to fix the problem. Thanks a lot for the quick fix.
