Hi!

I have a testsuite (PDF::FDF::Simple) that outputs a line with a
backslash at the end of a line (it's a test for backslash handling of
my module).

  t/fdfparser_newline.......1..10
  ok 1 - setting up
  ok 2 - parsing \                                  <--- HERE
  ok 3 - parsing slash r
  ok 4 - parsing dM
  ok 5 - parsing newline n
  ok 6 - parsing uncomment slash n
  ok 7 - parsing uncomment slash r
  ok 8 - parsing uncomment dM
  ok 9 - parsing slash n
  ok 10 - uncomment newline n
   Failed 1/10 subtests

Running the tests with "runtests" from TAP::Parser seems to miss a
line, probably due to the typical interpretation of a backslash at EOL
means concatenate the following line. Test::Harness/prove doesn't have
this issue.

Is a trailing newline correct in TAP or is it used to concat lines.

Should I correct my test output or should TAP::Parser handle lines
with trailing backslash differently?
