Hm...  is `error' stripping text properties before displaying, by any
chance?  If so, is there any particular reason why that would make sense
in general?  Hm...  perhaps the idea is that `error' is used in
low-level circumstances, so we don't want to rely on faces etc actually
working?

Anybody know?
