Yes, I'm pretty sure the following behavior is a bug:

           R2 =: 1 : 0
            u~/@|.@([EMAIL PROTECTED]@]`0:`]}~)
        :
            u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})
        )
           + R2 
        +~/@|.@([EMAIL PROTECTED]@]`0:`]}~)
            
Note that the dyadic valence isn't present in the derived verb.  The result
of  + R2  should have been:

           +~/@|.@([EMAIL PROTECTED]@]`0:`]}~) :(+~/@|.@((+ {.)`0:`]}))

We can work around this:

           R3 =: 1 : 'u~/@|.@([EMAIL PROTECTED]@]`0:`]}~) 
:(u~/@|.@((u{.)`0:`]}))' 

but we shouldn't have to.  I don't want to be required to mention the
explicit  x  and  y  or be forced to write a dense explicit ambivalent
operator employing the   :  conjunction.

Another bug:

           R4=:1 :0
        :
            u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})
        )
           
           + R4   
        |domain error: R4
        |       +R4

           NB. Why the error?
        
           R4
        1 : '    u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})'
        
           + 1 : '    u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})'  
        +~/@|.@((+ {.)`0:`]})

           NB.  Apparently _not_ identical to R4, despite its display.
           
           +(5!:1{.;:'R4')5!:0   
        +~/@|.@((+ {.)`0:`]})
        
           NB.  (5!:1{.;:'f') 5!:0  is supposed to be identical to f, 
           NB.  but in this case it isn't.
        
           NB.  Summary of the bug:
           + 1 : (':';'u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})')
        |domain error
        |       +1 :(':';'u~/@|.@((u {.)`0:`]})')
