Yes, I think so; I'm just nervous about applying a patch to the
byte-compiler just before a release.

Since there have apparently been no previous bug reports about this
issue, it doesn't seem to be critical, and probably could wait until
after the release.

[I don't actually _know_ that it's slower -- Emacs does seem to track
object references even when print-circle is nil, so it can avoid an
infinite loop in the printer.  It just seems to be a possibility.]
