Comment:

 This turns out to be an easy 1-line fix.   The bug turned out to be caused
 because the "allow_use_file" option wasn't properly passed  in the last
 recursive call to _eval_line in the _eval_line function.  And I guess that
 option is important since the default (=True) isn't the right choice when
 sending the name of the command to read in the file itself.   In
 particular, since
 {{{
  eval_using_file_cutoff=50
 }}}
 if the filename of the file to read in (plus the read command) exceeded 50
 characters, we were in big trouble... but only in the case when the stack
 was automatically doubled.  This example hit this threshold.
