Hey Michael - Thanks for taking a look at this.

Attempting to load a networked file also crashes emacs.

Unfortunately setting debug-on-signal or debug-on-quit doesn't produce a
backtrace - emacs won't respond to C-g and I have to kill the emacs process.
Tonight 'll attempt to run the emacs process under gdb, and grab a stack
trace that way.
