Umm.. and you would suggest we do this how without putting the entire
parser into the lexer?
The problem is that string translation is parse dependent. See the
testcases in g++.dg/charset/ for more examples.
I'll take your word on it though and plan on redoing the tree for the
string node when I encounter a place to translate and turning off the
translation stuff in the lexer for this.
