Hey,

I found something in [pack]'s handling of symbols that seems like a  
bug to me.  If [pack symbol ...] receives a message with just a  
selector, then it treats it as if it was a symbol.  I.e.  this packs  
a symbol:

[test(  <--this works
|
|                 [test(   <-- this throws an error
|                 |
[pack symbol symbol]
