The plot thickens. With this patch applied, I can generate an emacs
segfault with
1) EMACS=emacs23 ./devel/try-emacs-mua -q
2) M-x notmuch-search <return>
3) tag:inbox <return>
without the patch, I get a search view, and the message
Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, entry-main
I'm not able to trigger a lisp backtrace.
