I found a few occurrences of "\uxxx" which should probably have
one more "x". A patch follows:

 we have to a universal format.  For those that do not (for example those
 lacking a powerful enough @code{iconv}), it is likely that they work in
 Latin-1, the old @R{} assumption. Then the parser can return a
-UTF-8-encoded string if it encounters a @samp{\uxxx} escape for a
+UTF-8-encoded string if it encounters a @samp{\uxxxx} escape for a
 Unicode point that cannot be represented in the current charset.  (This
 needs MBCS support, and was only enabled at footnote{See define
 @code{USE_UTF8_IF_POSSIBLE} in file @file{src/main/gram.c}.} on
-Windows.)  This is enabled for all platforms, and a @samp{\uxxx} or

 @samp{\Uxxxxxxxx} escape ensures that the parsed string will be marked
 as UTF-8.
