I found what is the cause: it is my experiments with histchars: I tried to use 
histchars[0]=$'`' because I really hate `!' expansion if it is mapped to `!'.

Original message:
> When I write echo "\`abc'" instead of getting «`abc'» echoed I get prompt
> «dquote bquote>». Some time ago this construction worked normally. What may

> it), Gentoo amd64.
