Changed the patch from the initial bug report.

add-hook should allow symbols since it's reasonable to refer to

Doesn't it therefore seem a bit pointless to check? There will always
be ways to shoot oneself in the foot. I imagine many functions don't
check the type of their arguments.

Yeah, you're probably right; in retrospect I'm not sure why it's
necessary. Feel free to close as a wontfix.

I don't see a need to keep open this particular report, which was marked
"wontfix" some time ago.
