I checked out the jQuery trunk this afternoon and attempted to build
and run the test suite. After navigating to 'trunk/jquery', I ran
'ant' (for the default build to 'dist/jquery.js') and then 'ant
runtest'. At which point, I encountered a ream of syntax errors. I
noticed that in the built jquery.js file, on line 114, the jquery
version member is set to a string which wraps to the next line before
it terminates.

>From my build:
113: // The current version of jQuery being used
114: jquery: "1.3.3pre
115: ",

This results in the runtest Ant task completely busting from the seams
and, of course, the Yahoo minimizer and other min utilities refuse to
operate upon it. This is curious, since the file which is used to
populate this field (version.txt) does not have a trailing newline,
like I initially suspected.

Is this a known issue? I happen to be running an up-to-date version of
Red Hat Linux coupled with Ant 1.7.0. Additionally, I've encountered
the same issue when checking out jQuery 1.3.2 using svn tags.
