Description

=begin
Apologies if this has already been addressed but I could not find anything:

Alone, works fine

'a'.gsub("'",'\'')
=> "a"

Inside a string in #{} - bombs

"hi #{'a'.gsub("'",'\'')}"
[just waits for another "]
"
SyntaxError: compile error
(irb):20: unterminated string meets end of file
from (irb):20
