I'm not really that concerned in general, but in this case, the entire
problem is apparently due to one function --
byte-compile--first-symbol-with-pos -- that's very recursive.  It could
be rewritten to not be recursive, and these problems would go away
(which we've seen in many contexts now), if I understand correctly.
