bug#19498: 24.3; Dired unable to list single file with backquote-containing name

[sea]

It looks like using dired on a single file with the name "Hit`N`Hide"
(without the quotes) doesn't work. It should have opened a dired buffer
with just that file listed, but instead it prints the message:

insert-directory: Listing directory failed but `access-file' worked

I think it might be that any filename with a backquote will result in
this behavior when dired is applied to that file only.

Best,
sea
