Looks like you have a macro version of signum and Emacs was
expecting a function.  (As an aside, I really hate the fact Emacs
is addled in this way.)

I can't tell exactly where the reference is coming from without a
stacktrace.  (setq debug-on-error t), do the group-by and the
save and send me the stacktrace.
