[Bug 1088421] [NEW] Syntax highlighting of replacement string wrong

[l0b0]

Public bug reported:

These two lines are semantically identical - They both replace a single
tick with two ticks:

foo="${bar//"'"/''}"
foo="${bar//\'/''}"

The first variant is highlighted properly, but the second is interpreted
as the start of a string.

Implementation hint: It looks like this is handled starting at line 476
of /usr/share/vim/vim73/syntax/sh.vim.
