(Used a binary editor to generate a regexp for [ 0x80 - 0xff ]). There were 
only two occurrences in the sdf files; both in backends.sdf. Both are the same 
character, an apostrophe used instead of a single quote.

(binary patch xx)
X=`cat xx`
% grep "[$X]" *.sdf
backends.sdf:same connection. This connection pooling strategy can enhance the 
proxy?s
backends.sdf:maybe stored procedures can?t be considered programming, anyway ;).
