Slightly simpler repro:

(defmacro foo bar
M-: (elisp--local-variables) RET

It fails here:

                    (`(lambda ,args . ,body)
                     (elisp--local-variables-1
                      (append (remq '&optional (remq '&rest args)) vars)
                      (car (last body))))

where it expects args to be a list, but it's the symbol
`elisp--witness--lisp'.  I'm not quite sure what the correct fix is
here, so I've added Stefan to the CCs.  :-)
