bug#24166: With --eval, errors in string-match-p do not produce backtraces (but errors in string-match do?!)

Hey bug-gnu-emacs,

Is the following a bug?

    # No backtrace?!
    $ emacs -Q  --batch --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)' --eval '(string-match-p nil "A")'
    Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

    # Yes backtrace?!?
    $ emacs -Q  --batch --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)' --eval '(string-match nil "A")'
    Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
      string-match(nil "A")
      eval((string-match nil "A"))
      ...

This isn't new, but it behaved differently in Emacs 24.5:

    $ emacs-24.5 -Q  --batch --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)' --eval '(string-match nil "A")'
    Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
      string-match(nil "A")
      eval((string-match nil "A"))
      ...

    $ emacs-24.5 -Q  --batch --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)' --eval '(string-match-p nil "A")'
    Args out of range: 0

Clément.
