Syntax table change breaks package build

[Jerry James]

Sometime in the last week, something changed in 21.5 CVS that breaks the
package build.  I tried to build today and got a crash when byte
compiling auctex/tex.el.  This expression from line 3136

  (modify-syntax-entry ?«  "."  TeX-mode-syntax-table)

is no longer considered an sexp.  Try doing forward-sexp across it, and
you get an unbalanced parentheses error.  This appears to be the
problem: (char-syntax ?«) => \"
