Hi,

That actually helped; although the first thing it printed was
("car" "Wrong type argument in position ~A: ~S" (1 135725616) #f)

Given a clue, I took a step back, and used my handy-dandy list printer,
hoping to find a string where 135725616 was, but, no, it really does
seem to be an int.  Actually a pointer, look about right in hex ...
