I do have a Kensington Expert Mouse with their ancient Mouseworks
software installed. I wouldn't be surprised if that is the problem.
No more crashes with your update. Here are the results:
<mode-line> <C-mouse-1> is undefined
mode-line down-mouse-3- shows the minor-mode menu
mode-line down-mouse-1- shows the mode menu
