To my knowledge, the "fragile" option indicates that there is some code
in the frame that is not interpreted as usual. The contents of the frame
is copied to another file and then read back so the character codes can
be modified (see section 7.1 of beamer user guide).

To my opinion, the best solution to include verbatim/listing
environments is to use the defverbatim command. For instance:
\defverbatim\mycodesource{
\begin{lstlisting}{
(defun foo()
"Foo function."
(message "Hello!")
)
}
}
\begin{frame}{The power of elisp}
Here is a wonderful function:
\pause
\mycodesource
\end{frame}
You can then use overlays as usual etc and do not have to declare your
frame as "fragile".
