In Common Lisp '() and () should be identical and are made so through a compiler hack, from my understanding.

PG has indicated in the past (in the ANSI CL book, I believe) that he doesn't like this behavior, because the missing quote is a bit confusing.

It sounds to me though like this the error is a bug, since in arc they otherwise seem to be treated as identical.
