You must be talking about the Unicode apostrophe. Yes, some french keyboards 
or people writting code with Windoze have been inserting it in the code. 

Still, it shouldn't matter. The translation system is designed to allow full 
Unicode at the translation /source/, not only the localized strings. 

Can you tell us in what sense do the translations break in your case? What 
tool are you using to manipulate them?

Title:
  wrong ' makes translations not work

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  New

Bug description:
  OpenERP v 6.0 trunk

  addons/account/wizard/account_vat_view.xml

  The wrong character for ' is used.  It's hard to see, but instead of '
  another character is used that is not an ascii character.  This  makes
  giving a translation fail.

  The wrong text is:

  That’s very useful

  And should be

  That's very useful.

  You need to look in the code - it's hard to explain because the non-
  ascii character looks like the ascii character.
