Line numbers are confused by \ at EOL in multiline strings

[ironpythonbot]

In a file that includes a multiline string with one or more lines ending in '', stack traces and other uses of line numbers end up miscounting. For example, in the attached script under ipy.exe 2.7.1, the resulting error output is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "LineNumbers.py", line 5, in
Exception

If I run it under CPython 2.7.2, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "LineNumbers.py", line 6, in

raise Exception

Exception

Note that IronPython thinks the exception occurred on Line 5, whereas CPython thinks it occurred on Line 6.
