According to the Java docs, Java strings support eight escape characters.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/data/characters.html
One of the valid escape characters is \'

Clojure strings are supposed to be the same as Java strings, but when I
type the following string into the Clojure REPL, I get an error that \' is
an unsupported escape character:
"\'"

Does Clojure have some intentional reason for not fully supporting the spec
for Java strings, or is this just a bug?
