      Nope. #asciidoctor *still* translates them as '. Sigh.

            Hm. Maybe it's because this is in a code block.

               That was it. Put the entity outside the code block and it is passed through without having to use any backslashes, passthrough blocks or any other shenanigans.

                  @clacke I know this sort of problem. It's the one I run into every time I try a markupless markup system.

                  In Docbook proper:
