JDK-1.2beta3-F compiler fails to pass JCK test lang/LEX/lex005/lex00504/lex00504.html.
According to JLS3.4 (p. 14), the ASCII CR character followed by the ASCII LF characted is a valid line terminator and should be processed by the compiler ok.

However, compiler reports the following error compiling example a.java (see source code below):

> java -fullversion
java full version "JDK-1.2beta3-F"
> javac a.java
a.java:3: Identifier expected.
        \u000D\u000A
                   ^
1 error

// a.java -------------------------
class a {
\u000D\u000A
}
// end a.java ---------------------

java version "1.2.2"
HotSpot VM (1.0fcs, mixed mode, build E)
javac generates following error message:

[10] ep400x004::/quinn/Crap=- javac Crap.java
Crap.java:3: Invalid character constant.
        char c = '\u000d';
                 ^
1 error

when compiling the following example:

public class Crap {
public static void main ( String [] args ) {
     char c = '\u000d';
     System.err.println ( "Done!" );
    }
}
>> End of example

javac from JDK 1.1.8 compiles this code without problems.
