Comment (by nofearinc):

 I've personally tracked it down to `wp-includes/class-phpass.php` and the
 `crypt_private` method which is doing the hashing. I would guess it's
 related to the encode64 calls even though the single quote shouldn't be
 marked as any special character that takes more bytes than usual.
