I think it's a bug, perhaps related to quoting behavior.
Everything seems to work okay before this commit:
commit 430dd4fa711d0008137d7a82d4b4cd27b6e2d6d1
Author: Rich Hickey <richhic...@gmail.com>
Date: Tue Jan 19 14:25:26 2010 -0500
metadata for fns
Afterward:
(meta '#^a b)
;=> nil
(meta '#^{:foo :bar} [5 10])
;=> nil
(meta (first '[#^{:foo :bar} {}]))
;=> nil
This, however, works both before and after:
(meta #^{:foo :bar} [5 10])
;=> {:foo :bar}
Also, the problem appears to be related to 'eval' not 'read':
(second (read-string "(quote #^a b))"))
;=> b
(meta (second (read-string "(quote #^a b))")))
;=> {:tag a}
(eval (read-string "(quote #^a b))"))
;=> b
(meta (eval (read-string "(quote #^a b))")))
;=> nil
