Well, I didn't manage to trigger a backtrace. But I did observe the
following:
the error report seems to appear only if
org-contacts-files
contains more than one contact file.
e.g. when this line
,----
| (custom-set-variables
| ...
| '(org-contacts-files (quote
| ("/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts.org"
| "/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts-math.org"
| "/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts-family.org"
| "/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts-friends.org"
| "/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts-tufts.org")))
| ...
| )
`----
appears in custom.el, I see the error, but when it is replaced by
,----
| (custom-set-variables
| ...
| '(org-contacts-files (quote
| ("/home/george/org-files/contacts/contacts.org"))
| ...
| )
`----
I don't.
