[GAP Forum] Strange behaviour with Union - possible bug?

Dear GAP forum,

I am experiencing some strange behaviour with GAP's Union function: the 
command

Union([2],[3],[5,1..1]);

returns

[2,3]

rather than the expected [1,2,3,5].  (If I do

Union([2],[3],[5,1])

or

Union([2],[5,1..1])

the behaviour is as expected.)

Any ideas?  I'm running GAP 4.7.5 on Linux (because that's the version 
that comes with my Linux distribution); I apologise if this has already 
been resolved in a more recent version.

Best wishes,
Matt Fayers.
