I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with the syntax and usage of tests, so
I have to study that part. I've been looking at
`test-org-export/activate-smart-quotes', and I have a question: does it
only include tests for English and French cases?

First level quotes for French are «» with spaces, and second level ones
(if I'm not mistaken) should be “”, without spaces (my patch fix).
Therefore, I understand that a line like:

   (equal '( "« outer « inner » outer »")

should it be changed like this

   (equal '( "« outer “inner” outer »")

?
