For consistency I believe you are correct, I just felt it would make it easier to read.

Bug #5162: IMAP error formatting string
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5162

Author: art  lussos
Status: Assigned
Priority: Normal

Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [x86_64-darwin10.8.0] 


In the method msg_att in the file imap.rb, the parse error is written as

parse_error("unknown attribute `%s'", token.value), I believe it should be parse_error("unknown attribute '%s'", token.value).

Single quotes on both sides of %s
