Thank you for your patch @dasdachs. Do you mind to backport your change to other active branches (3.6, 3.5, and maybe 2.7)?

Thank you @serhiy-storchaka! I'll backport the changes as soon as I can.

This looks wrong to me. It looks like it will have a real newline rather than the literal \n escape sequence. See commit 39f180b.

Oh, my bad! I read the patch as adding the "r" prefix!

Of course it does. Sorry for the unnecesary work @serhiy-storchaka and thank you @vadmium!
