Today's guix pull gives the following bug.

Seems like an instance of <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/52559#15>.
I took the liberty of renaming the bug report appropriately.

Anyway, here's the minimal reproducer:

Run the following in a REPL:
(call-with-input-string "\"Hello\\\rcarriage return!\"" read)
;; --> invalid character in escape sequence: #\return

Greetings,
Maxime.
