This change doesn't build on the trunk, due to Stefan's 2010-04-20
change removing SYMBOL_VALUE.

I left out this change when doing the last merge from the branch.  Would
you mind working up a separate patch and applying it to the trunk?
(Fsymbol_value apparently doesn't work here, because the symbols can be
unbound and we don't want to signal an error.)

Thanks.
