I suggest something like: Make sure you have the .el files installed, if they come in a separate package on your distribution. Then do: emacs-23.1 -Q -l cl -l vc-rcs.el C-h f vc-rcs-annotate-command Click on `vc-rcs.el' link to go to definition. M-x edebug-defun Then repeat the thing that causes the error, stepping through the vc-rcs-annotate-command with the space key.
