Good day Alan (and Lars)!

If I start a new Emacs session and evaluate the form you provided, it
still reproduces the error.  I need to change it to * 6 to get the
desired result.  If, however, I delete the .elc file that was just
created and retry with * 2 then byte compilation works.

Whatever I do, the original max-lisp-eval-depth is not enough.
