Known failure, and I'm already in the middle of a big patch trying to fix
it.  The problem is that we don't (yet) properly concatenate builtins and
text into a single token.  But the fix is pretty invasive - it has to
touch the input engine, the macro parser, the symbol table, and the defn,
dumpdef, define, and pushdef builtins.
