(Summary: procedure-minimum-arity, called via `thunk?' when making
promises, was doing a lot of work, grovelling debuginfo to answer simple
questions.)

I fixed procedure-minimum-arity to be quicker, which should fix this
bug.  Please let me know if you see thunk? as a perf problem in your use
case.

In the meantime I seem to have broken ,trace :/  I'll see what the deal
is there.
