Comment:

 I don't know why we get a PAP-entered fault when Lint is happy, but I do
 know the cause of the bizarre eta expansion. This fixes it:

   * Fix Trac #2861: bogus eta expansion

   Urghlhl!  I "tided up" the treatment of the "state hack" in CoreUtils,
 but
   missed an unexpected interaction with the way that a bottoming function
   simply swallows excess arguments.  There's a long
        Note [State hack and bottoming functions]
   to explain (which accounts for most of the new lines of code).
