    It seems to be related to Richards recent changes to cus-start.el.  A
    possible workaround (I don't know how to fix it properly) is to revert
    lisp/cus-start.el to revision 1.64 (or 1.65?).

When there is a bug, please do not be so quick to suggest "let's
revert the previous change" as a "solution".  That might in some cases
be necessary, but unless the previous change served no purpose, just
reverting it cannot be the real solution.

The useful thing to do is to debug the problem.  Would you like to help
do that?
