Hmm, pasting that into the *scratch* buffer here and evaluating it via Esc-S-x or M-C-x doesn't cause a crash (in emacs24 or emacs24-lucid). If you have time, could you try again with 24.2+1-2 when it makes it to sid (should be shortly)? You might also want to install the new emacs24-dbg package which will allow gdb to make more sense. Oh, and if you can, try with "emacs -Q" too, to see if local customizations might be involved.
