I cannot reproduce this, and there is code in startup.el to handle this.
I tried:
cat ~/.emacs
(error "foo")
(custom-set-variables
;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(debug-on-error nil))
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.

)
If I use:
emacs --debug-init, I end up in the debugger's backtrace buffer.
