Actually, the manual tells a different story (and a run of texi2pdf confirms 
this):
http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/texinfo.html#Inserting-Quote-Characters
By default ` and ' are active, even inside @code. However, inside @code you 
sometimes don't want the replacements, so you can turn them off by using
   @set txicodequoteundirected

Actually, we are setting 
@set txicodequoteundirected
right at the very beginning of our manual, because we don't want those 
replacements at all...

Cheers,
Reinhold
