Subtle bug in CMUCL.

What should this form read as?
`#5(1 ,@`(2 3))

ECL, LispWorks and fare-quasiquote agree on #(1 2 3 2 3)
allegro, ccl, clisp, sbcl return the arguably conformant #(1 2 3 2 3 2 3 2 3)
abcl, cmucl, gcl, xcl all return the arguably completely buggy #(1 2 3)

It may be bad manners to talk with your mouth full, but it isn't too
good either if you speak when your head is empty.
