SSMS Throws Spurious "Incorrect Syntax .." Error by RBarryYoung

When I execute the following text verbatim in SSMS:

    update #CACFederalReserverHolidays
     set BankHoliday = 0

It throws the error "Incorrect syntax near ' '." As far as I can tell it should just say that the #temp table is undefined. (Even if the #temp table is defined, it throws the same error.)

I got this from a user's question on a support forum (here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14129706/update-a-temp-table/14130003#14130003).
Cutting and pasting the user's text into my SSMS, I was able to narrow it down to these two lines. After a lot of editing and testing, I found that the problem would only go away if I removed the line-break and spaces between the first and second line and then re-entered them myself. Suspecting some invisible/invalid character, I then quoted the text and examined it character by character with:

select unicode(substring('update #CACFederalReserverHolidays
 set BankHolidayX = 0', 35,1))

But looking at characters 35, 36, and 37, only revealed the Unicode values 13, 10, and 63 (CR, LF and Space).

As far as I can tell, this must be a bug, either in Management Studio, or in the SQL Server Parser itself.

Note that I have only reproduced this on SQL Server 2012 so far, but the original user reported it from SQL Server 2008.
