I should mention that the file in question contains some nonstandard lisp syntax. I have a reader macro that reads in something like @2006-12-03 and converts it to a date. But of course, this is harmless if read with standard syntax: It just becomes another symbol.
If you remove the read-macro, do things still break? (Not in the sense of removing @2006-12-03 strings, but in the sense of removing the read-macro itself.)
I'm not suggesting this as a workaround, just to narrow things down a bit.
