Thank you, @npostavs, for taking a look at this issue. The 26-count example (which does *not* crash) is a mini-version of the 6651-count example that I am using to replicate the crash. It may not possible to create a copy of the 6652-count example that crashes, because Emacs crashes before `prin1` can finish. The 6651-count example does *not* crash. I'll continue reading about how to increase the ulimit on OSX and try to find out whether this is a system-wide setting, or whether it can be done inside Emacs without modifying the system settings.

I load the 6651-count example using `read`, then I type a character, then I transfer the most recent entry from the buffer-undo-list to the undo tree history (in this case just one character breaks the camel's back) and then Emacs will crash if I call `prin1` on the history variable with `print-circle` set to `t`.
I will work on trying to come up with a way to create the 6652-count example that doesn't involve using the custom version of undo-tree to go from a count of 6651 to a count of 6652.
In terms of the reference to line 1350, I'm not sure what that refers to. The undo-tree history variable is buffer local, and I call `(prin1 my-history-variable (current-buffer))` and the current buffer is just a temp buffer that never gets populated because Emacs crashes. Or, at least, I never get to see the temporary buffer before Emacs crashes.
