I tested datum-label support with the following expression:

(let ((x '(#1=(a b) #1))) (eq? (car x) (cadr x)))

Gauche, MIT, Bigloo, Kawa, Chez, Ikarus, Mosh support the syntax and return #t;

Racket, Chicken, Scheme48/scsh, Chibi (in native mode), SCM, Larceny, Ypsilon, STklos, Scheme 9 report lexical syntax errors;

Gambit, SISC return #f for whatever reason.
