Looks like I forgot to remove some debugging code that generates
/tmp/l.ss. I've removed it, now.

The error would have happened with the next expression in your source
(i.e., the one after the expression written to /tmp/l.ss).

The error looks to me like a bug in the compiler --- probably in the
relatvely new src-to-src optimization phase --- and not in your code.
What's the next expression in your file?

Thanks,
