Subject: 27.0.90; Symbol’s value as variable is void:
 debugger-outer-match-data
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2020 12:40:43 +0100

Running with `debug-on-error' set to `t', I get the following 
error when triggering an(other) error:

Starting from `emacs -Q`, run `M-x ielm RET` to get an Elisp 
prompt. Then:

```
*** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
ELISP> (mapconcat #'identity '(("config") ("value")) " ")
*** Eval error ***  Wrong type argument: characterp, "config"
```

So far, so good. Now do `M-x toggle-debug-on-error` and repeat the 
input:

``` 
ELISP> (mapconcat #'identity '(("config") ("value")) " ")
*** Eval error ***  Symbol’s value as variable is void: 
   debugger-outer-match-data
ELISP> 
```

The debug window doesn't pop up.

The output from `report-emacs-bug':
