Issue Type: Bug
Components: Parser
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.1.6
Environment: Windows Vista Home Premium, JRE 1.6.0_11-b03

The following code causes parser to die with error "unexpected null
(SyntaxError)":
{code:title=1.rb}
puts '\\''
puts '\\\''
{code}
When similar line {{'\\'', '\\\''}} entered in irb, it complains with "Maybe
IRB bug!!".
In comparison, MRI shows:
{code}
2.rb:2: syntax error, unexpected $undefined, expecting $end
puts '\\\''
^
{code}
