Most of the "p->depth--;" lines associated with "p->error = WFERR_UNMARSHALLABLE;" are spurious, and can crash the interpreter if enough of them prevent reaching MAX_MARSHAL_STACK_DEPTH.  (The only exceptions are in 2.7, where some of them are followed by a return that skips another "p->depth--;".)

I can easily make a patch or pull request, but against which version(s) should I do so?  (Will such a trivial change require a CLA?)

It should be against master or the the newest version in which the problem exists. After merging this pull request the changes will be backported to older versions.

3.6 and 3.5 are open for security fixes only.

If I understand correctly, `p->depth--` associated with `p->error` could be removed?
