Hi Karsten,

the problem here is the inner quote. Your expression is read as:

  (quote ((one . 1) (two . (quote ((three . 3) (four . 4))))))

Which evaluates to

  ((one . 1) (two . (quote ((three . 3) (four . 4)))))

As you can see, that is not what you intended. The inner quote gets
quoted, too. So just leave it off and it should work as expected!
