Sorry, I neglected to include this line, which precedes everything I did quote:

SESC = "\" ( %x22 / %x2F / %x5C / %x62 / %x66 / %x6E / %x72 / %x74 /
             (%x75 hexchar) )

SESC incorporates all the other backslash-escaped characters. It, not hexchar, is the real entity referenced by everything else.
