[Bug 1447243] Re: systemd crashes with Assertion 'current[*l + 1] == quotechars[0]' failed at ../src/shared/util.c:583,

 

This happens because there is/was a space after the \ in the second
line. This is invalid shell, but instead of crashing, systemd should
just fail the unit because of bad syntax.

** Summary changed:

- systemd crashes with Assertion 'current[*l + 1] == quotechars[0]' failed at ../src/shared/util.c:583,
+ systemd crashes with Assertion 'current[*l + 1] == quotechars[0]' failed at ../src/shared/util.c:583 with invalid line break escapes
