That is my problem! How do you find the file that is causing the error?
Based on where the error occurs in *Messages* and that it also prints to
standard error(?) as Emacs is starting, I would guess that the error is
occuring site-lisp or site-start. A "--debug-init" doesn't give me
anything because Emacs hasn't gotten to the init file yet (CMIIAW).
Therefore, I guess it is not in any of my ,emacs.d/elpa packages.
I recognize what the problem is -- I'm just not sure how to find where
it is happening.
