The problem is not the apostrophe but the space char. Replace it by an underscore! I will add a bugfix which automatically replaces spaces by underscores in catgeorymatch ...

categorymatch=%Test'd funk%:

I know the underscore problem and it doesn't help. See (cl0.cl_to LIKE '%\'d_%') this is what causes me problems. This is the problem I have. I use a template on all cats that check the for images used on category={{PAGENAME}}. This works fine for all cats I've checked so far just not for "Café d'Anvers". But it would work if I use "category=Café d'Anvers" directly. Do you a workaround to make it work for all kind of cat names using {{PAGENAME}}? --Subfader 12:12, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
Resolved in DPL 1.8.7.
Mediawiki expands special chars within PAGENAME to html entities and ther & misleads tDPL to take the & as an AND operator.
