Actually, the message states that it's "ignorning" it. So I'll have to learn more about ignornance!

"kbuildsyscoca running..."
"not a typewriter."
"Keyboard macro terminated by a command ringing the bell"
"Spork"
"Keyboard Error. Press to continue"
And all modern inane backtraces from elisp or Java, as in:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable abc)
(duplicate-sequence abc)
eval((duplicate-sequence abc))
eval-last-sexp-1(t)
eval-last-sexp(t)
eval-print-last-sexp()
call-interactively(eval-print-last-sexp)
recursive-edit()
byte-code("[binary goo]" [debugger-buffer debugger-args noninteractive debugger-batch-max-lines middlestart buffer-read-only pop-to-buffer debugger-mode debugger-setup-buffer count-lines 2 "...\n" message buffer-string kill-emacs debug backtrace-debug 3 t debugger-reenable "" nil recursive-edit standard-output inhibit-trace] 3)
debug(error (void-variable *stuff*))
eval(*stuff*)
eval-last-sexp-1(t)

eval-print-last-sexp()
