After reconsideration, I realized that such giving up is not appropriate
when that unmatched close quote has, in front of it, other open-close
quote pairs. Examples:
      abc ``def ghi'' jkl $y''=x^{2}$
      abc <<def ghi>> jkl $y''=x^{2}$

So the correct way is to continue searching backwards another close
quote, I think. The revised patch is attached. I'll install it soon.
