What does Emacs 23 say when you do:
M-x describe-language-environment RET RET
(accepting the default of current langage environment)
I suspect that it is picking up Turkish from somewhere (control panel
settings, or environment variables LANG or LC_ALL), as when I guessed
that might be the problem from your name and email address and tried
setting LANG=TRK before starting emacs, I got a crash immediately with
Emacs 22. Judging from the fact it is crashing in regex.c when looking
at a capital I, it seems to be related to this earlier bug that was
fixed for 22.1:
