I get the same results in "emacs -Q" rebuilt from scratch from current
pristine master, 2698d3dba2 (2019-10-01 23:15:03 2019 +0300). After
building and running using this command...:
git reset --hard 2698d3db && git clean -xfd && ./autogen.sh &&
./configure && make && src/emacs.exe -Q
...the recipe below pops up the Lisp debugger.
M-: (call-process SPC "xyzzy") RET
c ;; debugger-continue
On continuing in the debugger, it prints "forward-sexp: Searching for
program: Permission denied, xyzzy" in the *Messages* buffer.
