Pushed (with test) [1: c352434ab8].

Yes, actually.  I initially had some trouble reproducing without
instrumenting a function with edebug, but now I see that's just because
a function which let-binds only a single variable hits
max-lisp-eval-depth before max-specpdl-size (edebug's intrumentation
adds more bindings per call).  Let-binding two variables allows to
trigger the bug with just

    (defun foo ()
      (let ((x 1)
            (y 2))
        (foo)))

    (let ((signal-hook-function #'ignore))
      (foo))
