Sigh, I didn't think it could be this simple.  Now instead of
segfaulting with the cursor between the single quote and the double
quote, it segfaults if the cursor is after the double quote:

% alias a='"<TAB>
16: compcore.c:1678: expecting 'x' at offset -1 of "x""

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Also with completeinword NOT set, the single quote still vanishes in this case:

% alias a='<TAB>
% alias a=

So the patch is sort of on the right track, but still not the whole
story.  Turning this back over to others, I probably won't have a
chance to look at it again for a few days.
