I started with a complete reinstall of Emacs 24.5.1 (including deleting and reinstalling the Auctex, Org and Magit packages) and the same issue occurred.  For more clarification, I can initially comment the equation section, but when I go to uncomment, I get the hourglass.

If you like, I can do a video for you.

Let me understand the recipe to reproduce the problem.  You save that file as a noweb file (that is, with *.rnw extension) and when you issue C-c ; Emacs crashes?  AUCTeX doesn't fiddle with Emacs internals, it shouldn't make Emacs crash.  I noticed you're running a development version of Emacs, did you try with a stable one?  I tried with Emacs 24.5.1 and nothing happened (apart from commenting the code).

Bye,
Mosè
