I just got a reply from Friedrich Friedrichs:
CFLAGS="-O0 -DSYNC_INPUT -g" ./configure
make clean
make
Then see if you can crash Emacs again. (The point here is to see
if the -DSYNC_INPUT compilation flag helps remove the problem.)
I can't crash it with -DSYNC_INPUT enabled. (At least it doesn't
crash during the usual operations and I was able to re-publish my
whole planner-muse-wiki without problems.)
So it looks like signal handling during string/cons allocation is
indeed the culprit.
