I saw this a while back and I was going to look into it.  I
forgot. :-(

I think it's a bug.  We shouldn't be printing out Lisp symbols for
these things.  It seems all that's required is to add a reversealias
property to the symbol's plist.  Not sure if that's the correct
solution.  Need to look at what linear display does....
