Looking at the code, I'm still not sure what the meaning here is.
(let ((sargs (and show-args
(delq nil (mapcar (lambda (x)
(unless (macroexp-const-p x)
x))
(cdr form))))))
So... if the elements in the rest of FORM evaluate to the same value,
they're included in the error output, but if not, not? Uhm...
