 No SYMVAL_UNBOUND_MARKER, the code takes the default branch,

 This is exactly what currently happens with the portable dumper.

 The solution may be to  add the case and put  a sym->value = newval in
 it, but I'm far from understanding the code enough to be sure. 
Huh? The code seemed to survive pretty well.

AHA! This was done with 21.1 and there symbols.c has

	case SYMVAL_UNBOUND_MARKER:
	  break;

This is commented out in 21.2. Presumably this was part of Martin's
mega patch.. Maybe he can explain why he removed it.
