Most likely fixed in CVS, due out in 21.4.17 in a few days according
to the release manager.
As we are about to release AUCTeX 11.55, we are in need of a
workaround for 21.4.16. David posted the following on the AUCTeX list
(string-match "\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(\\(.\
\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)\\)" "x")
but didn't consider it a real and bullet-proof solution.
As a last resort we could prevent the regexps triggering the segfault
from being applied in XEmacs.
