Yes. It did and it still does. It works for emacs -Q in Emacs 20, 21, 22, and
23.1. And it has always worked for pretest binaries as well. I used `emacs -Q
--debug-init'.

Normally, when I hit C-c C-c it asks me if I want to send the bug and I answer
`yes'. It then opens a new Outlook message with the To and Subject fields
filled, and with text in the body telling me that my bug report is on the
clipboard. I just use C-a C-v in the body to replace that text with the report,
then click Send.

In the Emacs 23.1.91 pretest, , when I answer `yes' it raises the error.
