This gets even more interesting.
First time I run m-x report-emacs-bug I get a no match error so hit c-g.
Then I run m-x report-bug and get into a form and fill it as best I can.
next when I run m-x report-emacs-bug this time m-x report-emacs-bug works. Only thing I can figure is the m-x report-bug triggered something that made m-x report-emacs-bug work that third time around.

It allows at most one line of text if that for describing how to
reproduce a bug.  What I found with saveplace would need more than one
line to explain but not much more than one line.  So all of this is
unreportable.

Just after M-x report-emacs-bug (not report-bug) the user is prompted
for a one-line short description which acts as a summary. Then a buffer
is shown prefiled with relevant info about your configuration. There,
you can write all the details about your report, with no length limit.

Are you saying that you don't see the buffer mentioned above?
