For Volapük, it looks much more like U+02BE (right half ring modifier letter)
than like U+02BC (apostrophe "modifier" letter).

No, I don't think it's 02BE (especially since it goes in the other direction.  You mean 02BF.  But I don't think it's that either).  Note the thickness at the top.  That isn't a half-ring.  It's pretty clearly an 02BD on that page, whereas on the page before, it's just as clearly an 02BB.  Or I guess another lesson to be learned is they weren't terribly picky.  Which I guess is good, because I don't want to have to fret about "gee, we need a boldface 02BB for capitalized Volapük..."  There's a reason they dropped that letter.
