The first thing that strikes me is the Lisp backtrace, which is almost 
300 lines long and keeps repeating the same calls:

"redisplay_internal (C function)" (0x93baf8)
"redisplay" (0x8100b8)
"sit-for" (0x8102f0)
"minimap-update" (0x810668)
"apply" (0x810660)
"byte-code" (0x8107d0)
"timer-event-handler" (0x810b78)
"input-pending-p" (0x810e68)
"sit-for" (0x8110a0)
"minimap-update" (0x811418)
[...]
"input-pending-p" (0x8391b8)
"sit-for" (0x8393f0)
"minimap-update" (0x839768)
"apply" (0x839760)
"byte-code" (0x8398d0)
"timer-event-handler" (0x839c78)

Is it possible that minimap-update has gone into an infinite recursion? 
  Or is this kind of lisp backtrace normal for you (e.g., if you stop 
emacs and examine the backtrace at random times)?  I'm afraid I don't 
know anything about minimap, but the first thing I'd do is try to figure 
out what's going on with minimap-update.
