Hmmm. You are right. There is some magic at play in my environment
that I wasn't aware of. I have now simplified the setup and can still
reproduce the crash.

Yep. That's a debug message from my code.

I'm not sure where I got it from. Apparently not a debian package.
Sorry, I'd forgotten downloading it.

Done. I've copied all of the necessary files, including tabbar.el into
a new directory "~marc/emacs-crash", simplified my .emacs and moved it
into that directory. Here is the, slightly amended, recipe:
$ cd ~/emacs-crash
$ emacs -Q -l .emacs
C-x C-f k/k-<TAB> (completion frame appears)
[navigate back to minibuffer]
s<TAB>e<TAB> (kaboom!) (there will still be messages in the echo area)
Thanks for getting back to me.
