Pulling the latest changes this morning (I believe I was 11-13 commits
behind before I pulled.)

This breaks a crucial setting on evil-mode.

Setting this variable.

(require 'evil)
(setq evil-move-beyond-eol t)
(evil-mode)

Documentation: (for evil-move-beyond-eol)
Whether the cursor is allowed to move past the last character of a line.

Go to any line. Press $ in 'normal' mode. It will go to the end of the
line past the last character in the line. Trying to go backwards now
will error 'args out of range'.

For context, that variable is very important to get to cursor point to
evaluate the last s-expression properly. Sorry if that's a little vague.

Turning off display-line-numbers makes it work as expected.
