It's not too hard.  Here's a minimal recipe.

  1. C-h f TeX-active-master-with-quotes RET

  2. Hit RET on the file name link to go to where that function is
     defined.

  3. Set point somewhere on the function, e.g., its name and do
     M-x edebug-defun RET.

  4. Now execute the command triggering the error.  A window will pop up
     showing the file where the edebugged function is defined, and point
     is always before the sexp being evaluated next.

  5. By pressing `n' you can evaluate the current sexp, the result will
     be printed, and evaluation (and point) moves to the next sexp.  So
     just keep on pressing `n' until you get the error and report back
     where it broke.

Thereafte, set point after the function and do C-x C-e.  That will
remove the debugging instrumentation so that you won't pause and be put
into the edebugger whenever that function is called.

Hm, too bad.  That would have been a problem easy to fix.

Argh, so probably something windows-specific.
