If debug-ignored-errors isn't returned to its original value after
Emacs starts, that's a bug that wasn't supposed to happen.

However, if I start Emacs as

  $ emacs --debug-init

and then evaluate debug-ignored-errors after it starts, I see the
original value.  So this part seems to work.  It is only if I add some
symbol to debug-ignored-errors in the init file that the problem
happens.  So I guess the convoluted logic in
startup--load-user-init-file is missing something, Stefan?
