[New-bugs-announce] [issue2192] error with backslash as last character in raw string

[aka]

New submission from aka:

When creating a raw string ending with a backslash the systems answers
with an error:

>>> r'c:\'
SyntaxError: EOL while scanning single-quoted string

This happens on many systems with many versions, so it is propably a
problem of the interpreter itself.
