-----------------
+- Issue #1477: With narrow Unicode builds, the unicode escape sequence
+ \Uxxxxxxxx did not accept values outside the Basic Multilingual Plane. This
+ affected raw unicode literals and the 'raw-unicode-escape' codec. Now
+ UTF-16 surrogates are generated in this case, like normal unicode literals
+ and the 'unicode-escape' codec.
