Syntax pattern delimiters (was: Unable to turn off spelling for words followed by punctuation characters)

OK, looks like the type of quotes makes the difference.

I don't think syntax pattern strings follow the rules for ordinary quoted strings since you can use any punctuation character as delimiter just like with :s, and like with :s forward slash seems to be the standard, but if the pattern contains forward slashes you can use some other character which does not occur in the pattern.

However it is not clear to me whether single quotes are in any way special here. It seems :h :syn-pattern does not mention anything on it. Does anyone know? (I'm curious! :-)
