R devel - Feb 2009 - "source" fails to handle non-ascii variable names (PR#13541)

If there is variable name in the source file which contains non-ascii
characters, "source" gives an=20
"unexpected $end" error after first such character (even if proper
file encoding is provided).
This also happens with parse, when "file" is a textConnection, but not
if the same code is provided=20
by "text" argument.
This problem seems to occur only on Windows.

Examples:

 > con <- textConnection("=C4=85=C4=99=C4=87=C5=BA <- 12345")
 > parse(con)
Error in parse(con) : unexpected $end at
1: =C4=85

# backtick quoted names are parsed correctly:

 > con <- textConnection("`=C4=85=C4=99=C4=87=C5=BA` <-
12345")
 > parse(con)
expression(=C4=85=C4=99=C4=87=C5=BA <- 12345)


# also, parsing as text works:

 > con <- textConnection("=C4=85=C4=99=C4=87=C5=BA <- 12345")
 > parse(text=3DreadLines(con))
expression(=C4=85=C4=99=C4=87=C5=BA <- 12345)
attr(,"srcfile")
<text>
