I was wrong, it was actually just *very* slow to finish startup.  I am 
now running from the emacs-24 branch instead.  The assert has finally 
failed again, and here's the backtrace.  Not sure it's of any help since 
you have already provided a backtrace from the same assert, but it can't 
hurt and might provide some additional information.
