Please disregard that.  I had accidentally recompiled the modified
version with the fixes I mentioned.  When I recompiled the version
without those fixes, the error returned.

So I was trying to save you the trouble of looking into an false error
report, but in the process I made a false false error report.  If this
gets any more confusing, I'll write my reports in Lisp instead.  :)

I'll continue testing with more packages native-compiled.

Thanks.
