If an Excel cell contains a string which contains an
internal apostrophe (e.g, if the cell contents are: 'my
name's Yair), then the internal apostrophe is mishandled
and converted into \0342\0200\0231 (at least on Linux,
using both xlhtml v. 0.492 and 0.493): "my name\0342
\0200\0231s Yair".

My command: xlhtml -csv -xp:0 in.xls > out.xls
(same bug also in -asc).

I tried using -m, but it had no effect.
