[Bug fortran/34203] Treat \ as normal character (at least on Windows); diagnose unrecognized escape characters

[kargl at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Comment #1 from kargl at gcc dot gnu dot org  2007-11-23 16:26 -------
As I've stated before, I think putting machine dependent code
into the Fortran frontend is a bad idea.  You'll soon see a
tangled mess of #ifdef ... #else ... #endif code, which will
become difficult to maintain.

gfortran's default behavior should match whatever g77 did
with C escape sequences.
