There is a special variable `debug-ignored-errors' with the list
of error messages to ignore, and as I see it already contains
"^No dynamic expansion for .* found$".  So when debug-on-error
is non-nil, `dabbrev-expand' is not disturbing due to this variable.
Do you have a test case where `debug-ignored-errors' gets ignored?
