Comment:

 I think this is simply a temporary-stack overflow (the stack that holds
 the arguments, used in `C_do_apply`). I can't remember right now if this
 is checked, but will try to come up with a patch that adds some checks
 (just for testing).

 We should probably try to figure this out before we do a release.
