I'll change my example.

<meta name="description"

I now have an attribute that is marked up by single quotes containing
a single quote. IE6 for one cannot deal with this.
Is the above 'meta' element the output of an XSLT processor? Which one
do you use?
For instance when I have an input XML with your above text
<desc>Financial Times, "Erdoğan Grubu'na"</desc>
and then use Saxon 9.2.0.3 to run the stylesheet
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
version="2.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes" method="xhtml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Example</title>
<xsl:apply-templates select="desc"/>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="desc">
<meta name="description" content="{.}"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
against that input then the resulting XHTML document is
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Example</title>
<meta name="description" content="Financial Times, "Erdoğan
Grubu'na"" />
</head>
<body></body>
</html>
and that output looks fine to me, the content attribute value is
delimited by double quotes and therefore any double quote in the value
is escaped.
