Aaaaah.  I was seeing something like this as well but I didn't figure
out why.  Thanks for tracking this down!  The reason is that the type of
make-prompt-tag changed, and the stack narrowing code didn't adapt
accordingly.  We need to change to default to consider generic objects
as eq?-compared prompt tags.
