bug
To reproduce, just paste the following in the REPL:
b'\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\x5cx5a\xaa'
The result will be a syntax error, even if the string is valid and can be parsed by Python3.
