 *Help* buffer turns single-quote into goofy useless Unicode thing

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

  $ emacs -Q
  M-x load-library RET subr-x RET
  C-h f read-multiple-choice RET
  C-x o
  M->
  C-x e

I see Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable ’)

I was expecting the example code to execute so I could learn about the new
function read-multiple-choice.
