I have stumbled upon backtrace dump a number
of times, but I was never able to reduce it
to such a simple form.

IMHO it cannot be fixed without understanding
what is going on in "eval.c", which, unfortunately
is a royal mess of a module.

I also have a dump involving a "deval" call with
NULL arguments, which belongs to "eval.c", too.
