On xlisp-stat 2.1 rel 3.37 on AIX ( using XLISP 2.1g ) 

> ( char-code #\; )
59 

works as expected, but on xlisp-stat 2.1 rel 3.44 on the Mac 
( also based on XLISP 2.1g )

> ( char-code #\; ) 

hangs until I type another right parend, and then it prints the
answer before giving a misplaced parend error. I have to type:

> ( char-code #\;
  )

To evaluate it without error. 


Is this a known bug ?


[ BTW: I have had trouble building the latest release on AIX. 
  I don't have the errors list on hand at the moment - I'll try
  another attempt and give a better report when I can - but in
  the mean time, has anyone else had better luck on that port ? ]
