Summary: error-k too shallow due to optimisation

Initial Comment:
Our optimistic optimisation framework causes error
continuations to be too shallow:

SISC (1.13.0-alpha)
#;> 
(with/fc
    (lambda (m e) (e 1))
  (lambda () (+ (/ 1 0) 1)))
1

The above should have returned 2 instead of 1.

This makes resumption of computation by calling the
error-k pretty much impossible since one cannot easily
predict how the code gets optimised and hence where the
error k was actually captured.

I reckon we can fix this by reverting the optimisations
when we get an error.
