Yes, I understand you. It is pain when Emacs does not start at all, I
hate it myself.

If Emacs does not start because of quickstart, you can always run it
with -Q or -q flags, so quickstart wont come into play.

But as said; I installed those and byte-compiled quickstart file and it
worked. So it can be something else in your setup. Or maybe just older
Emacs bombs out? Have you tried to build newer from the master?
