------- Comment #3 from simon_baldwin at yahoo dot com  2006-08-18 17:51 -------
Unfortunately, adding -pedantic brings in a grab-bag of other warnings that
aren't currently separable.

What would be useful, I think, is to have unknown escape sequences as its own
-Wmumble option.  That way, it's selectively available without all of the rest
of -pedantic.

Hmm, the comment in the preprocessor is all of those:
    case '(': case '{': case '[': case '%':
      /* '\(', etc, can be used at the beginning of a line in a long
         string split onto multiple lines with \-newline, to prevent
         Emacs or other text editors from getting confused.  '\%' can
         be used to prevent SCCS from mangling printf format strings.  */

Hmm, interesting if I add -pedantic, I get the warnings.
And this is not a regression.   A preprocessor person has to comment on why this is.
