I was about to post a problem report (and possible solution) on this
subject myself, but I'll simply join the thread. I ran this morning
into the same problem that Howard Melman reports.  I then stepped
through the call to VM-STUFF-MESSAGE-ORDER, and I noticed that the
problem was originated by a call to the function SIGNUM, which is
defined - in cl.el, I believe - as a function and then redefined in
timer.el (which comes with VM5.32) as a macro. I commented out the
macro from timer.el, recompiled it, and now everything seems to work
fine. 

I understand this is a known problem. I'd like to know if others have better 
solutions and/or if there are any side effects to what I just did.
