I reliably and repeatedly get the same error locally if I run:

  src/emacs -batch -l admin/cus-test.el -f cus-test-opts all

  [...]

  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (cyclic-function-indirection customize-changed)
    where-is-internal(find-file nil t)
    substitute-command-keys(";; This buffer is for text that is not saved, and ...")
    command-line-1(("-l" "admin/cus-test.el" "-f" "cus-test-opts" "all"))
    command-line()
    normal-top-level()

Isn't this because of a stale defalias in lisp/ldefs-boot.el?

Thanks,
