See, for example:
http://www.lispworks.com/kb/4fbc798cb17237ca852566da005fcc79.html . Also
for GCL, we have
(%i39) :lisp(print CALL-ARGUMENTS-LIMIT);

So this is more of a limitation than a bug. I suspect there is a
workaround; finding a
workaround will be fun and educational:) Have you compiled pw.mac? That
might make such
bugs more likely. Does the same bug happen for previous versions of pw.mac?
Also, code
that looks like apply('f, ...) is a likely source of such bugs, I think.
Happy bug swatting.
