much more info? But I'm still very clueless when it comes to Emacs Lisp):

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (quit)
save-place-forget-unreadable-files()
save-place-alist-to-file()
save-place-kill-emacs-hook()
run-hooks(kill-emacs-hook)
kill-emacs()
save-buffers-kill-emacs(nil)
save-buffers-kill-terminal(nil)
call-interactively(save-buffers-kill-terminal nil nil)

I'll try strace and report on any progress later.
