How?  It's not even clear what problem you and Prot are talking about,
even whether it's exactly the same problem.

Mattias's patch CAN NOT	have fixed Prot's original stack overflow
problem.  Unless you believe in magic.

You have conflated two problems into one, and believe that a solution to
the second (the problems with byte-compile--first-symbol-with-pos)
somehow have solved the first (the stack overflow in modus-themes).
This cannot possibly be.

Mattias's patch looks faulty to me.  (Background: I wrote
byte-compile--first-symbol-with-pos.)

Please don't do that yet.  The bug is not yet resolved.  If you have
already done this, do you mind if I reopen it?
