Hello Stefan,

No. If it has already started looping it has no effect at all, and if I
set in in my ~/.emacs and restart it, I can reproduce the bug again, but
it seems to happen not that fast.

If it's set to the default of 16 I just have to open my ~/.emacs, and
bam, 100% cpu utilization. If it's set to nil I had to jump arround the
buffer for some time.

Now I'll do what Richard suggested: Making normal backtraces and looking
for a common pattern...
