Insert

(gv-define-simple-setter aref aset)

in a buffer and try to edebug-eval it (C-u C-M-x).

It gives an error which I don't understand, because the second argument
`aset' should match symbolp...

I also tried this on the build from master and the error is the same.

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax "Expected" (&or symbolp lambda-expr))
  signal(invalid-read-syntax ("Expected" (&or symbolp lambda-expr)))
