I think I fixed that problem in my mildred-projects branch.

Currently the compiler doesn't interpret escape sequences while parsing,
and put them as they are in the .c file. So, to write a string constant,
the compiler basically do:

c_file.add_last '"';
c_file.append string_constant;
c_file.add_last '"';

If the escape sequences are not properly formatted in the string, this
can result in an error in the c file.

What I did was to interpret the escape sequences in the parser, and
whenever a string constant was written in tha c file, the escape
sequences were recreated, according to the C language. This also have
the advantage to make it possible in the future to handle other
languages beside C that don't have the same escape sequences.
