Hello, Emacs.
In the new NEWS in the recent pretest, at L1381 we have:
** To avoid confusion caused by "smart quotes", the reader no longer
accepts Lisp symbols which begin with the following quotation
characters: `'�""�� � � , unless they are escaped with backslash.
^^^^
, which leaves it unclear whether it's the "smart quotes" or the Lisp
symbols which need escaping.
I suggest replacing "they" with either "these quotes" or "these symbols"
depending on the desired meaning.
