CC Mode 5.27 (C); Syntax highlighting after parens in quotes

[Fred T. Krogh]

If I have parens. inside quotes and the line is continued using a '\' at the end
of the line, emacs seems to think following lines are still inside quotes.

The following illustrates the problem.

    if (my_query("s#remind_num from XBREM where (user_id=#p#) && 
(remind_id=#vMA#) &&\
(remind_num < 64) && (down_case = #n)qzg") < 0) return my_exit; // Get current 
reminder status;
    if (my_exit) {
...


While this works as it should.

    if (my_query("s#remind_num from XBREM where (user_id=#p#) && 
(remind_id=#vMA#) &&"
"(remind_num < 64) && (down_case = #n)qzg") < 0) return my_exit; // Get current 
reminder status;
    if (my_exit) {

I would appreciate knowing if I'm truly confused on what should be happening 
here.

Best Regards,
      Fred
