I tracked it down, trying it in weekly builds.  The bug exists starting (at
least by) 2011-04-04.  It persists through 2011-08-22.  It appears fixed
starting with the build of 2011-08-29.  So you can close this now - something
fixed it between 8/22 and 8/29.

It broke when minibuffer.el was converted to lexical-binding and was
fixed when debug-on-entry was made to understand interpreted
lexical closures.
