I keep forgetting those tricks, sorry. I didn't do anything (other than
restarting emacs and rebooting and I can'T reproduce this issue
anymore...

So I guess whenever i'll see those backtraces next, i'll flush the cache
and retry.

Still, one has to wonder: if emacs can just dump core if someone messes
with my eln-cache, that's... bad, no?

(I guess you can do pretty much *anything* if you get to mess with that
folder anyways, which also makes me quite uncomfortable... but you have
a lisp machine or you do not, i guess...)
