Indeed, that is doubtless the problem! Thank you!

One note: CHARACTERP does a bit more than is actually needed here, it
may be sufficient to say XINT (c) <= MAX_CHAR or to use the
CHAR_VALID_P macro.

I am not sure what the intent here of the restriction was, but a more
general solution for the entire line of the test might be
CHAR_PRINTABLE_P depending on what that intent actually is. (I don't
entirely understand the intent, so I can't say.)
