`date-to-time' has:
(condition-case-unless-debug err
(encode-time (parse-time-string
(timezone-make-date-arpa-standard date)))
As you have `debug-on-error' set, this looks like the expected
behaviour.
The `condition-case-unless-debug' was added by Stefan in commit
cb411c609d43 on April 19th. Perhaps this is left over debugging code ?
