I agree that D and L with Caron resembles D and L with apostrophe, or maybe rather, D and L with single quote mark (T with Caron should also be included here), but U and O with Horn are quite different where the "thing" is attached at the half-high level rather than detached at the full-high level.
If characters that resembles an apostrophe or carries something that looks like an apostrophe should be excluded then D, L and T with Caron are good candidates, but I do not think that U and O with Horn are.
I agree with Mats. For the consonants (D, L, T) the Caron is too confusable with a punctuation mark to keep those letters. I'd certainly vote to remove them. For the vowels I am undecided. Yes, the "thing" as Mats calls it, is at half level and thus not quite at a location one would expect an apostrophe or single quote. Still with some fonts it's not nearly as attached as with others. If I were to decide, I'd probably vote for keeping the vowels, but I wouldn't complain if a majority votes differently.
