Where do you see a Java error here ? I see the Clojure implementation reporting that you are trying to apply a numeric operator to a null/nil value :)
I agree the JVM stack traces are not nice and polluted by all the frames which may/may not be relevant. The messages are not always as clear as this one either. You do not have any source file line number anywhere in the stack trace pointing to your code ?
