"&apos;" is one of five so called entity references predefined
by the XML specification. The XML parser (that used by "suds")
should automatically convert it to "'". There should be no need
for your application to do anything special for "&apos;".

Of course, there might be a bug somewhere (in "suds" or its parser).
A deeper analysis would be necessary to verify this assumption
and to locate/fix the bug. Even if this looks more difficult,
I recommend to go this route rather than to try something
special for "&apos;" at the application level.
