IE8 hack not parseable in less 3.5

[Jogai]

Bootstrap 3 contains a hack for ie8 (see https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/v3-dev/less/carousel.less#L204)

``background-color: #000 \9;

Less 3.5 on windows 10 gives this error:

../Content/Styles/Backend/Admin.less
111:13 error Module build failed (from ../node_modules/css-loader/index.js):
ModuleBuildError: Module build failed (from

Does this compile on previous versions (3.0)?

[Jogai]

Yes, I was at 3.0.4.

[matthew-dean]

Confirmed. I tried to narrow down why one passes and the other doesn't, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet. I don't see where support for escaping currently (previously) happens in the parser.

@Jogai Please try latest release (v 3.5.2). Re-open if you still have an issue.
