symbol is nested in #{ ...... }#

[Damien Mattei]

Hi,
why does
(string->symbol "#:hello")
$1 = #{#:hello}#

gives #{#:hello}# in guile instead of #:hello ?

like in Kawa or Racket

i understand it is special to guile as i can write:
scheme@(guile-user)> #:hello
$1 = #:hello

but then how can i generate a #:hello from a string or a list of char?

regards,
