Ah, right.  I think `--debug-init` *should* help (tho apparently it
doesn't, maybe that deserves its own bug-report), but otherwise you have
to resort to simulating the init by hand.  I.e. start with

    emacs -Q --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)'

and then try and manually load the site-init files.
But there's a chance the problem won't trigger in that case because of
some detail of when&how the files get loaded.
