I can reproduce this in a vanilla XEmacs.
Here is the Lisp code (assuming that you have a recycle2.xpm glyph).
Note that this will not happen if you use the default gc-pointer-glyph.
(if (featurep 'xpm)
(let ((file (locate-data-file "recycle2.xpm")))
(if (condition-case error
(make-image-instance file nil
'(pointer))
(error nil))
(set-glyph-image gc-pointer-glyph file))))
(make-annotation gc-pointer-glyph nil 'text)
This sequence crashes on me.
