Joseph Chadwick <josephholyheart at gmail.com> added the comment:

The attached replaces the text for the documentation in 2.4.1 between the lexical definitions table and the escape sequence table. The only change is the following addition to the paragraph on string and byte literals prefixed by 'r' or 'R':

When a byte literal is prefixed with both 'r' or 'R' and 'b' or 'B', the b must precede the r, as in: 'Br', 'bR', or 'BR' and not 'Rb', 'rB', or 'RB'.
