Can you debug it? It seems to be a result of a feature that, I believe, Stefan implemented whereby, in a docstring, RET or Mouse-2 lead to the doc of anything that has a definition as a Lisp variable, face or function, regardless of whether it is quoted. So if you do RET on say "and, or, when, if, not", even if non-quoted and even if used as plain English words instead of Lisp symbols, you get the doc of the corresponding Lisp function. In particular, this is true of the word locate. Sincerely, Luc.
