I noticed something odd in J901 and J806 that does not seem to be happening in
J702. There seems to be some extra level of decoding that is going on when a
literal is boxed.
Here are the examples. They are in the JHS environment, but the results are the
same for j901 and j807 in the jqt environment. The result that I would expect
is the one shown in j701.
