Follow-up Comment #1:

Thanks for the report.  Yes, there are a couple of problems in the raw string
scanner: determining the end of a raw string, and handling escape sequences
differently from ordinary strings.

I'm attaching a patch to those, but I'm concerned that this change might
introduce an incompatibility with C code based on the older standard (e.g. LR
is defined as an ordinary C identifier).  Perhaps we should add a new language
tag, like xgettext -L C++11, to toggle this feature.
