bug#66940: Dynamic scoping is all weird now?

[Dave Goel]

got you. 

My macro should have been

(defmacro mac()
  `(progn
     (message "%S" ,ii)
     (sit-for 0.1)))

So, the original macro had a brain-fart basically amounted to returning nil unconditionally.

In that case, why were we getting that strange error?

The macro expansion of mac is what it returns, which is what sit-for
returns...
