From tCD's Bugs/Features/Things:

* ;"E" in "aeiou" => 0, ;"E" in "AEIOU" => 0, ;"e" in "aeiou" => 2,
  ;"E" in "AEIOUaeiou" => 0  (etc)
* ;;var n; n = tostr('test); n = lowercase(n); n = tosym(n); return n;
  => '"garbage foo xxx"  (do this eval multiple times)
* get_name() throws argstr (trivial, but (shrug)):
     - Can't find object name foo.
  change to:
     - Cannot find object name foo.
* when beginning a parameter with '-1' (either with the parameter's value
  being -1, or -1 beginning a list on a parameter value), the driver will
  bomb when it tries to reload it from a textdump.

As far as the second bug, from what I can tell the problem only occurs when
you do:  tostr(symbol); munge str with *builtin; tosym(str);
where the only builtins I can make it occur with are lowercase() and
uppercase().
