``` ``(a ,@,@'((c d e f))) ``` Should return ``` `(a ,@(c d e f)) ``` as it does with e.g. SBCL. But Gerbil currently returns ``` `(a ,@((c d...

If you grep -i corman in the ASDF sources, you'll find many workarounds for bugs in Corman Lisp, some of them glaring. Oh, and grep for clozure instead and find...
