This one is especially annoying in Python 2, since it makes raw
unicode strings useless for common path literals. For example:
>>> ur'C:\Users'
File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'rawunicodeescape' codec can't decode
bytes in position 2-3: truncated \uXXXX
>>> ur'C:\users'
File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'rawunicodeescape' codec can't decode
bytes in position 2-3: truncated \uXXXX
Python 2 raw strings are half-baked.
