--- Comment #1 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The set of valid characters in a #line directive includes escape sequences.
Unconditionally filtering some of them out from the preprocessor output would
violate the requirements of the C standard and could cause it to break other
tools that depend on it when such sequences were present in the name of a
source file being preprocessed.
