Dear Bug Team!
I've also sent a bug report to the BBDB boys and girls.
I have no idea what is going on here. Every time I try to do anything
with BBDB, I get the error in the subject.
I have tried 'xemacs -vanilla', but I get the same result.
This only started happening this morning, but it is happening with the
version of BBDB currently in 'Pre-Release' _and_ the previous
version. It is happening with current CVS XEmacs _and_ pre Ben's sign
compare patch.
It's got me beat.
Here's a back trace that I was able to collect:

(For Adrian's benefit): I have no load-path shadows. :-)
