Strange.  Could you please eval the following expression and report back
what happens?

(let ((buf "*locate*"))
  (apply 'start-process "locate-process" buf
         (append anything-c-locate-options
                 (list "pattern")))
  (pop-to-buffer buf)) ;; <-- Press `C-x C-e' behind the last closing
                       ;;     parenthesis.

Bye,
Tassilo
