Hello Paul, hello Emacs.

Since a recent commit, Fbare_symbol (in src/data.c) no longer works on a
symbol with position when symbols-with-pos-enabled is nil, instead
signalling an error.

This is due to the new CHECK_SYMBOL (sym); statement in Fbare_symbol,
which wasn't there before.

Since I merged master into my development branch, I can no longer build
it because of this change.  A rapid reversion to the previous
functionality would be appreciated.  :-)

Thanks!

Couldn't you fix this on your branch by (what sounds like a trivial)
change in Fbare_symbol?

Btw, why is your branch special in this regard?

I've done that already here, of course.  But I was wanting to make a
commit yesterday evening, which of course I can't with this bug
unresolved.  Paul is quite particular over the exact formulation of these
macros and inline functions, which have an important influence on Emacs's
speed.  So I thought I would give him a chance to fix it neatly first.

It's the branch where I'm implementing position information in doc
strings, using symbols with position to get this information.  This is
bug #67455.  Progress is pretty much at the stage where we can start
discussing the exact presentation of the information in backtraces, etc.
