[plt-scheme] Character lambda vs. word lambda in Lazy Scheme

From: Casey Klein (clklein at cs.uchicago.edu)

In Lazy Scheme, the behavior of the character lambda differs from the
behavior of the word `lambda':

   #lang lazy

   ((lambda (x) 42) ((λ (x) (x x)) (λ (x) (x x)))) ; terminates
   ((λ (x) 42) ((λ (x) (x x)) (λ (x) (x x)))) ; does not terminate

Is this intentional?

Thanks,
Casey
