Summary: pointer to [route symbol]-[print] crashes pd

Initial Comment:
[namecanvas foo]

[traverse foo, bang(
|
[pointer]
|
[route symbol]
|
[print]

1) a pointer message is erroneously routed as a symbol
2) this crashes Pd
3) [route pointer] doesn't route a pointer

Message:
Hi Jonathan,

I raised the priority as crashes are really serious. I disagree with your
item 3), though. [route pointer] should not route GPointers, but
meta-messages starting with the symbol "pointer" e.g. 

[pointer 1 2 3(
|
[route pointer]
|

It does that just fine.
