im guessing that some small detail could have been wrong.
The small detail is PK – this word is used somewhere in your .emacs
files.
If you copy the contents of the *Backtrace* buffer into the *scratch*
buffer you can then find a long and not clipped line that might
contain a comment like:
; Reading at buffer position 12345
Now you can open the faulty ELisp file and execute:
M-x goto-char RET 12345 RET
and the cursor is at the position where the error happens. Well,
mostly. Sometimes, often, this position is at the end of a large if
or progn clause ...
