 I think there is a tiny problem in the wordpress text renduring:

 when you use single quotes in the text, WP converts them to single fancy
 quotes. However, some quotes are transformed in the wrong direction.

 e.g. if you type: 'products', 'services', you get ‘products’,
 ’services’ rather than ‘products’, ‘services’.

 I think the problem comes from WP detecting something like /'s/ rather
 than /\w's/
 ’s

Comment:

 No patch -- punting.
