+//! The token sequence `&raw` *only* starts a raw borrow expr if it's immediately
+//! followed by either `const` or `mut`. If that's not the case, the `&` denotes
+//! the start of a normal borrow expr where `raw` is interpreted as a regular
+//! identifier and thus denotes the start of a path expr.
+//!
+//! This test ensures that we never commit too early/overzealously in the parser
+//! when encountering the sequence `&raw` (even during parse error recovery) so
+//! as not to regress preexisting code.
