Actually there's something to watch out for here, though I don't think
we have other instances that will provoke a crash.
The issue is, what should happen when you pass a null list to a
function that takes a list argument and returns a list? It seems that
right answer should be "null in, null out": you get an empty list on
return, rather than an error message. But I'm not sure that all
our functions work that way.
