When an apostrophe appears in a text for a button, everything after the apostrophe is lost. For example, mediawiki:savefile in Walloon is "Schaper l' fitchî" (note the apostrophe). That text is displayed in a button when uploading a file with warnings. The html of the rendered page is as follow: ... <input tabindex='2' type='submit' name='wpUpload' value='Schaper l' fitchî' /> ... Here you see what the problem is, the text in the value= field is enclosed in single quotes, and the the single quote in the text itself isn't escaped. As a result, the button only shows "Schaper l" instead of "Schaper l' fitchî". All text that is to be displayed in the rendered page that way should be escaped for apostrophes.
Fixed in trunk in r14365.
