emacs -Q
In *scratch*, put the point at the beginning of the buffer and
M-x isearch-query-replace
The minibuffer shows
Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
The same happens if an isearch was previously executed. (From reading
the docstring, I don't know how isearch-query-replace is supposed to
work.)

It's easy to fix the error of a nil ‘isearch--current-buffer’ in
‘isearch-done’ (it's also reproducible by evaling just ‘(isearch-done)’).
But then with an empty search string initially, ‘isearch-query-replace’
will start replacements of an empty string. So outside of isearch mode
it could be useful only with the last non-empty search string.

I'm unable to reproduce this in Emacs 28 (it instead replaces the
zero-length string with whatever you say it should), so I'm guessing
this has been fixed in the years since it was reported, and I'm closing
this bug report. If this is still a problem, please respond to the
debbugs address and we'll reopen.
