JSON Parsing Edge Case

[T.V Raman]

The following happens with both json-read  -- the elisp implementation
as well as json-parse-string  implemented in C --

Try this json fragment --  by typing it into an empty buffer:

{"quote": "1"}

The above is a json dict with one key -- "quote" -- with value 1.

Parsing this into an emacs alist -- either with (json-read) or
(json-parse-buffer)
yields  the following lisp structure -- 

('. "1")

the list structure is really 

(quote . "1")

but the elisp reader has turned that symbol "quote" into an "'"
