 Zamora Fonseca notes:

 {{{
 CL-USER> '(2 . 5)
 (2 . 5)
 CL-USER> '(2 . 5 . 5)
 (2 . 5)
 CL-USER> (equal '(2 . 5) '(2 . 5 . 5))
 T

 while other implementations give me an error when i type '(2 . 5 . 5)
 it's a bug or ANSI CL allows this?
 }}}

 According to Pascal J. Bourguignon's reading if the CLHS
 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.armedbear.devel/3455>,  ABCL should
 signal a READER-ERROR (or possibly an ERROR) to return to ANSI conformance
