to_lisp() causes silent failure



Hi Jim,

Thanks for the method for dealing with single lisp commands, which works
for me, and thanks in advance for fixing the bug.

   You found a bug. I can reproduce it, but only under GCL. (I'm sure it
   isn't GCL's fault, however.) It will get fixed.

   In the meantime, you can entire single lisp commands by starting a
   command with :lisp. For example,

   (C1) :lisp (format t "hello~%")
   hello
   NIL
   (C1) 

   Thanks,
   Jim
