Edebug gives an error message if you try to use it on code which uses
strings with text properties. To reproduce, using emacs -Q if you like,
enter the following code into *scratch* and type C-u C-M-x:

(defun my-fun ()
  (message "%s" #("abcd" 1 3 (face italic))))

This results in the error message: "Invalid read syntax: "Bad char after #"

Here is the backtrace:
