[issue15846] literal_eval raises SystemError instead of SyntaxError, because of illegal escape sequence

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti added the comment:

You can try to remove things until that error goes away to see what is causing the problem and/or print the values of source, filename, mode, and PyCF_ONLY_AST to see if there's anything unusual.
