Does the last patch obsolete the first two?  If so please delete the obsolete 
ones.

I imagine there are might be small doc updates required, as well.

I haven't looked at the patch itself, but concerning your test patch:  your 
try/except style is unnecessary, I think.  Better to just let the syntax error 
bubble up on its own.  After all, you don't *know* that the SyntaxError is 
because the quotes aren't escaped.  I've run into other unit tests in the test 
suite where the author made such an assumption, which turned out to be false 
and confused me for a bit while debugging the failure.  I had to remove the 
code producing the mistaken reason message in order to see the real problem.  
So it's better to just let the real error show up in the first place, in my 
experience.
