By catching the parse error when parsing it as a (normal) string, then
reparsing it as a raw string (ie, running backwards over the
characters until you hit the second ?"), and check for a leading #r
(two tokens of lookahead).

Thanks for the example, David, XEmacs is buggy here (or maybe
terminating a rawstring with \ will be declared illegal ;-).
