Details:

In classpath-0.15:

In java.util.Properties, load(InputStream) method, at
line 215, a value returned from BufferedReader.readLine()
is dereferenced without being checked to see if it is null.
This part of the code is handling line continuations.
This suggests that loading properties from a file which ends
with a backslash character will result in a null pointer
exception.
