[CM] problem with #! in CMUCL

Using CM 2.3.4 an CMUCL 18d I had no problems like that.

* (new seq name 'test)
#<seq: "test">
* #!test
#<seq: "test">

So I do not think your error is caused by the read macro '#!', but no
further help unfortunately -- can not reproduce your error.

Regards,
Torsten
