> Given the following VTL:
> #set($var = "\\" )
> #set($var2 = "${var}")
> results in the following parse error:
> Encountered "${" at test.vm[line 2, column 15]
> Was expecting one of:
>     <RPAREN> ...
>      ...
> the problem is that when parsing the string literal "\\" the second double quote is escaped.  This was actually a bug that was introduced in 1.6.x, but I don't think we necessarily need to fix it in that branch.
