There might be another regexp which is complicated or covers a
long range, although it hasn't been reported afterwards.  It is
easy to find it if it really exists, and I might be able to fix
it.  Could you send a Lisp backtrace?  To do that, run
`M-x toggle-debug-on-error' before the error occurs, and include
the contents of the "*Backtrace*" buffer in an email.

P.S.  I'm sorry for a late response.  I got the flu just before
you sent the message to the list, but I'm fine now.
