OCaml: lexing of double quotes as character (between single quotes)

[maroneze]

Name of the lexer ocaml

Code sample

let isquote c = match c with '"' | '\'' -> true | _ -> false

Link to sample on rouge.jneen.net : http://rouge.jneen.net/v3.26.0/ocaml/bGV0IGlzcXVvdGUgYyA9IG1hdGNoIGMgd2l0aCAnIicgfCAnXCcnIC0-IHRydWUgfCBfIC0-IGZhbHNl

Additional context

After the " inside the simple quotes, the rest of the code is colored as if inside a string.

I tried modifying lib/rouge/lexers/ocaml.rb but didn't succeed. There is a rule rule %r/'[.]'/, Str::Char that should match, but unless I completely remove the rule rule %r/"/, Str::Double, :string, it seems to take priority over the previous one, and lexing fails.

FWIW, I just noticed that '\"' is equivalent to '"' in OCaml, and the former is correctly lexed, so there's always a way to change the source code to avoid the issue.
