Aha, that must be it.  Thank you.  (It does use 'print', actually, in
'save-place-alist-to-file').

I'll fix it with this:

   (let ((print-length nil)
         (print-level nil))
     (print ... ))

...so that the code will be safe even if save-place-alist's structure
someday changes to become more nesty (which I doubt, but why take a
chance?).
