I'm not even sure this is a bug, but what the heck.
GNU Emacs 18.55.2 of Wed Jan 3 1990 on ptl (berkeley-unix)
If we put
(backward-list)
in the *scratch* buffer, position point at the end, and then do
eval-last-sexp, Emacs goes into an infinite loop, whereas it seems
what it ought to do is move point to right before the open paren.
