bug#3907: bad result for insert-kbd-macro

[Francesco Potorti`]

I created a macro and called insert-kbd-macro on it.  This is the
result:

(fset 'allegati
   [?e ?\C-[ ?< ?\C-s ?t ?e ?x ?t ?/ ?h ?t ?m ?l ?\C-m ?\C-[ ?{ ?\C-[ ?{ ?\C-[ 
?} ?\C-x ?q ?\C-[ ?x ?k ?e ?e ?p ?\C-m ?f ?i ?l ?e ?n ?a ?m ?e ?= ?\C-m ?\C-m 
?\C-m ?\C-[ ?% ?. ?* ?f ?i ?l ?e ?n ?a ?m ?e ?= ?\" ?\\ ?( ?[ ?^ ?\" ?] ?+ ?\\ 
?) ?\" ?\C-m ?  ?[ ?  ?\\ ?1 ?  ?] ?\C-m ?! ?\C-m ?\C-m ?\C-m ?\C-x ?q ?\C-c 
?\C-c ?o ?\C-[ ?\C-? ?i ?s ?i ?\C-m ?\C-[ ?p ?  ?d ?\C-[ ?> up ?\C-c ?\C-c 
?\C-m])

I see two problems here:

1) first, if I go to the end of the macro and hit C-x C-e, it appears
   that the sexp is not correctly evaluated, as the parser sees
   unbalanced parentheses

2) second, insert-kbd-macro used to write the strings between double
   quotes, which is generally more readable and allows for easy editing;
   I do not know wht it used the vector style here
