I see the code triggering this has a FIXME on it:
;; FIXME: Replace this by some workaround.
(if (> (car bytes-tail) 255) (error "Bytecode overflow"))
What workarounds could we use? Introduce a new jump opcode with a 4
byte operand? Or daisy chain a bunch of relative jumps? Both of these
seem a bit extreme for a pretty rare edge case.
