    (SETQ POLY-1 '(NIL NIL 5 . 6))
    (SETQ POLY-2 '(nil nil nil nil))
    (APPEND POLY-1 POLY-2)
    MPV;APP1>>HLRZ A,(AR2A)

    Please fix to either work or give an error.
PDP-10 MacLISP simply does not pretend to check for atoms other than
NIL (sorry, ()) at the end of a list, because the atom test
is too expensive in important inner loops like APPEND.
