Resending, because for some reason, I got a failure message from
emacs-pretest-bug.

The latter was your problem. From `(elisp)Timers':
It is usually a bad idea for timer functions to alter buffer
contents. When they do, they usually should call `undo-boundary' both
before and after changing the buffer, to separate the timer's changes
from user commands' changes and prevent a single undo entry from
growing to be quite large.
So it is no surprise that you accumulated such a large single undo entry.
Right now my desktop buffer is 32 kB;
So that is approximately 32 kB every five minutes. After eight hours,
you exceed 3M.
Anyway, my patch, or disabling undo, completely gets rid of this problem.
Sincerely,
Luc.
