Ah, yes.  But that can just as easily be discribed as a bug in the
re-quoting routine conv_text(): it should backslash-escape back-ticks, but
it doesn't.  That's all there is to it.  And since saving single-quoted
string constants is not really a safe option, I would strongly suggest
leaving the label_struct alone and fixing conv_text() instead.
