Re: define key with "\s-" super modifier in string?

            (global-set-key "\s-n" 'compile)

            Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Key sequence SPC - n uses 
invalid prefix characters")
            ...

The presence of SPC in the error message is certainly a bug.

The main purpose of \s for space is for character constants.
So it seems to be a mistake to treat \s as space in string constants
even when followed by dash.  It should get an error at read time.
I made a change to do that.
