If you bump into such a warning, please report it as a bug.
Emacs's own source compiles without emitting any such warnings, so you
can be sure that there are at least *some* cases where "don't" and
"`foo'" does not cause a warning, since we have many of those in
our docstrings.  The things that tend to cause warnings are:

   Set this to 'foo in order to crok the struble.

which should be rewritten to:

   Set this to `foo' in order to crok the struble.
