Looks like we can't blame Microsoft this time.  Unicode states that the
"preferred character for the apostrophe" is the SAME character as the
right (smart) single quote.  Apparently the distinct apostrophe is
unique to braille!  It would be nice if we could get the rest of the
world to change but it doesn't seem likely.
