[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

An item in a backtrace consists of a function and ACTUAL parameters
(argument values).  If you do  (list 'a 'b), the function will be  list
and the argument values will be (a b).

(list a b) is a misleading way to represent that.  It looks like a and b
are expressions to be evaluated.
