Follow-up Comment #2:

Actually, the expression "works", and does the same as:
(make <list>)

The problem is that printing the list causes an infinite loop or stack
overflow, because the resulting gnu.lists.LList object is not a valid <list>
- it is neither a <pair> nor is it the empty list.  That's why you're not
supposed to (make <list>) - the LList constructor is only public to support
serialization.

I fixed the printer/formatting/toString routines to handle this pathological
case.
