The GtkD code contains things like this in doc comments:
/// `'type'`
The behavior of ddoc (See the "inline code" section of http://dlang.org/spec/ddoc.html) is to interpret text inside of '' characters as D code, which for some documentation generators involves lexing the code between '' characters. The lexer will then see the single quote as the beginning of a character literal and error out when it finds more than one character inside of the single quotes.
