Thanks.  However, without a recipe to reproduce or at least some
supporting data, there's not much one can learn from this, except that
the problem is not yet solved.  If I modify a file outside Emacs and
then try to insert a character, and when Emacs asks the question, tell
it to revert its buffer, I see no crashes.

What I see from this backtrace is that you typed a characters
(self-insert-command), to which Emacs told you that the file was
modified and asked what to do.  You then replied with 'r', asking
Emacs to revert the buffer.  As result of the revert, some
after-change-hook got run, which caused another (perhaps the same)
after-change-hook to run:

Any idea what could those hooks be?

In general, if you want to help the investigation, run Emacs under
GDB, and when this happens look around to find answers to these
questions.

TIA.
