emacs -Q

`M-x load-library dired-x'

`C-x d' for a dir that has a subdir

With cursor on a subdir line, `i', to insert its listing.

With cursor on the inserted-subdir heading line: `!'.

You get that raw error message.

`!' is not intended for directory heading lines.  But the error
raised shouldn't be one you see.
