    Description

      I have found a problem in v1.8 where output with embedded quotes supplied from Reader is incorrectly escaping. When data read from the Reader starts with an embedded quote, output quote escaping is unbalanced and cannot be subsequently parsed/loaded. Subsequent embedded quotes are correctly escaped.

      input data:
      "A" ASKED "B" ANOTHER QUESTION.

      output:
      """"A"" ASKED ""B"" ANOTHER QUESTION."

      expected output:
      """A"" ASKED ""B"" ANOTHER QUESTION."

      See attached patches.
