562	Chicken reader does not maintain quotes on |#:|	Jim Ursetto	felix winkelmann	"string->symbol on |#:| works, but reading it does not.  See comment below.

This causes node (chicken read-syntax #:) to be not properly indexed.  It can be accessed directly but not via the index, because the index entry looks like (: (chicken read-syntax)) instead of (|#:| (chicken read-syntax)).  Although it is written out correctly initially, once the index goes through a read/modify/write cycle (on a different symbol) the |#:| becomes #: and then eventually :.
