Even more it didn't use the "\xfc" either. That is fixed now. The problem is
the parser, it concatenates both strings.

You could do "\xdf\C" for this one, but that won't work for e.g. "\xfd\a"
ofcourse.

That is the parser again. In fact the parser should indeed do the escape
sequence translation.
