I'll give it a shot.  I bumped up the max-specpdl-size to 13400 from
1300, but now it just seems to hang when doing stuff.  More once I get
some debug info.

Yup, I did byte-compile it all.  Got tons of warnings about stuff lie
this:


"emacs" -batch -q -no-site-file -no-init-file -l ./vm-build.el -f
batch-byte-compile vm-w3m.el

In end of data:
vm-w3m.el:167:1:Warning: the following functions might not be defined
at
    runtime: vm-mime-cid-retrieve, vm-mm-layout-type,
        vm-mime-transfer-decode-region
        Wrote /home/john/elisp/vm-8.2.0c/lisp/vm-w3m.elc



I'm running emacs 24.5.1 on Debian 9.9.  And I see that I can install
emacs25, so I'll try using that next as well.
