Whups.  I earlier said:

What I *meant* is that this would be interpreted as ((x) z), and not as (z).

Basically, #; skips the next datum.  The question is, given a#|hi|#(x), should 
the "following datum" be "a" or "a(x)"?  By greedily reading everything 
following (, [, or {, and giving up when the tail doesn't start with those, the 
answer is that "a" is the next datum skipped.

Basically, if you want to write a(x), you need to have NOTHING between the "a" 
and the opening "(".  Which is consistent with SRFI-105 anyway.
