My version of yodl is patched to transform ' into \&' instead of \',
but it appears that yodl is not touching the ' in this context:

    sitem(tt('))(

I therefore patched the sed command in the Makefile.in to tweak the
resulting nroff source to add in the missing \& prefix.  Attached is a
patch.

I'll also attach a patch for anyone using a stock version of yodl (this
patch is derived from Debian, and some other distributions already
include it too).
