Any instance of single-quote-double-quote-single-quote (as in the character representation of double-quote) will break the string parsing engine.
Example: while(expr.charAt(j) != '"' && expr.charAt(j) != "'" && j<expr.length){ // code }

Which string parsing engine is that?
Syntax highlight, smart-typing or highlighting pairs?
I think it may break the latter, but I didn't make [single] quotes highlighted in any of the bundles I touched.

The problem looks to in the ActionScript Syntax file, the single quotes weren't escaped.

Ben if you want an immediate resolution the edit the ActionScript.tmbundle/Syntaxes/ActionScript.plist file and change line 26 from:
{ name = "strings.single-quoted.actionscript"; begin = "'"; end = "'"; swallow = "\\."; fontStyle = ( normal ); foregroundColor = "#727272"; },
to
{ name = "strings.single-quoted.actionscript"; begin = "'"; end = "'"; swallow = "\\."; fontStyle = ( normal ); foregroundColor = "#727272"; },
It worked for me on your code example but I've not checked to see if it's thrown any other errors.
Hope this helps,
Simon
