There's something _very_ weird going on on your system.  For example:

> Lisp Backtrace:
> "car" (0xffff47f0)
> "numberp" (0xffff4938)
> "cond" (0xffff4a78)

This says that 'numberp' calls 'car', which is false, according to my
reading of the code.

What system-wide or Emacs-related changes, excluding "git pull" from
the repository, did you make immediately before this started
happening?  Any system upgrades, new installations, anything else?
