I can't reproduce it.

Is C-c ' (still) bound to org-edit-special?

C-h f org-edit-special RET says

,----
| org-edit-special is an interactive Lisp function in `org.el'.
| 
| (org-edit-special &optional ARG)
| 
| Call a special editor for the stuff at point.
| When at a table, call the formula editor with `org-table-edit-formulas'.
| When at the first line of an src example, call `org-edit-src-code'.

`----

and I get the ffap behavior in a quote block (not that that's particularly
attractive either).

Did you try it emacs -q? Maybe it's a customization of yours.
