Package: auctex
Version: 11.54-4
Severity: normal

  A couple days ago, I was editing a large file when emacs went into what 
appeared to be an infinite loop -- no display updates and it was eating 100% 
of CPU.  I killed it and re-opened the file, only to have it hang again.  
After a little experimentation, I determined that the following was 
happening: if font-lock-mode is enabled, and some other unknown circumstance 
holds, auctex goes nuts when I finish typing a tag.  For instance, I could 
type:

\en

  but when I type the "d", auctex hangs.  If I let it run long enough, an 
autosave file is generated in which the "d" is present, and auctex can load 
and fontify it with no problems.

  I have no idea how to reduce this to a minimal test case, unfortunately.  I 
haven't seen it since I shut off font-lock-mode, but I can say that it 
happens even if I move my .emacs out of the way (so my personal settings 
aren't triggering whatever the problem is).
