FWIW, CMUCL does the same thing.

Then, as you report, (symbolp fl) is T, and the code $nounify's nil,
which apparently works on CMUCL.  

What happens if you just don't nounify if fl is nil?  If I do this
with CMUCL, ev returns

                                       log(125)
(%o1)                          [f(x) = --------]
                                        log(5)
