Bug #5109: YAML output has changed

Have no idea why, but I noticed that 1.9.3 is producing strange YAML output:

snippet:

• 35: ''
• 36: ! ' Then ''the result should be (((\d+))) on the screen'' do |n|'
• 37: ! ' @result.assert == n.to_i'
• 38: ! ' end'
• 39: end

Where as in 1.9.2 it comes out more like one would expect:

snippet:

• 35: ""
• 36: " Then 'the result should be (((\d+))) on the screen' do |n|"
• 37: " @result.assert == n.to_i"
• 38: " end"
• 39: end

libyaml detects if you have single or double quotes in your string. If it sees those characters, it will escape them and emit a tagged string literal.
