a) this problem occurs with a 22 branch build, and according to the OP  
the problem has been occurring with different builds since October.

b) I am the Aquamacs maintainer and the bug (like most bugs in our  
distribution) has been reported to me.
If people have problems identifying the bug from the stack trace, then  
I'd be happy to answer more specific questions, of course.  
Unfortunately I'm not set up to debug C level code in the Emacs core.
