Hello support, I came across some very strange behavior recently regarding docstrings in functions. In the notebook in 3.2.alpha0 and 3.0.6, putting an apostrophe in the docstring causes various bugs. It doesn't have to be in any particular spot, as far as I can tell; in fact, it took a long ti

I have to deal with this a lot, and I've gotten used to it but it annoys me. More support for specialization would be great. I am not that good with the guts of the polynomial ring code and singular or I would have dealt with it already. I would be happy to review patches related to this. -M.
