>Description:
From cvs log:

   revision 1.8
   date: 2007/10/25 14:40:33;  author: he;  state: Exp;  lines: +1 -0
   Bring back the fix in revision 1.6, apparently accidentally lost
   during last merge, to allow escape of a newline in string literals.

>Fix:

cvs diff -r 1.7 -r 1.8 dist/nawk/lex.c:
