Oh, well. Another bug bites the dust. I made a patch to NILCOM;BACKQ and
recompiled it so that the `"FOO" bug doesn't occur. There was some bad
#-conditionalization there where
(COND ... ('T #+... #+...))
was reading as
(COND ... ('T))
because both #+'s failed. I suspect one shoulda been #- but since they were
essentially identical, I made a reasonable compromise which I think will
not hurt anyone. Someone familiar with this ugly code should check my patch
which was to |+ibx/||. The old and new code is pretty clearly marked.
The new version of BACKQ is 44 and I've installed it on ITS.
