This code in `report-emacs-bug' violates the convention set forth in
(elisp) `Key Binding Conventions', which reserves `C-c' plus a
letter for users:
 
(define-key (current-local-map) "\C-cm"
     'report-emacs-bug-insert-to-mailer)
 
Hard to believe this happened.  New key bindings, especially in longstanding,
core Emacs modes, should be reviewed before a
release.  The bug was introduced in Emacs 24.1.

The doc is unequivocal about this:
 
  Don't define `C-c LETTER' as a key in Lisp programs.  Sequences
  consisting of `C-c' and a letter (either upper or lower case) are
  reserved for users; they are the *only* sequences reserved for
  users, so do not block them.
 
In GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)

This is indeed a mistake.  Since this bug was introduced in Emacs 24.1,
it is a regression against Emacs 23; I went ahead and fixed it in the
emacs-24 branch, with the new binding C-c M-i.

Thank you.
