Description
An `IllegalArgumentException` is always thrown now when loading a properties file with malformed unicode sequences. Previously, a malformed unicode sequence appearing at the end of a line was parsed using the contents of the preceding line, which in rare cases meant it could be parsed as a valid (but likely incorrect) sequence.
