This style comment inside string no longer works in 1.7, right
brace and backslash are part of the comment.  Instead, this
works in both of 1.6 and 1.7:

foo = %Q!\
this is a string #{#some comment
}\
that is continued on a second line
!

Once we had a little discussion on inline comment, but still no
conclusion.
