I can reproduce the Lisp errors, but so far I haven't seen an abort. I've had one session running for about 24 hours. I'll look into the Lisp errors when I get a chance, but I wonder if there's something else going on (BLODA?) that's causing the abort on your system. Do you have access to a Windows computer that doesn't have Symantec Endpoint Protection installed? By the way, there have been some recent changes in the way emacs handles the blinking cursor. One of the changes turns off the timer for the blinking cursor when emacs is idle, so it's possible that the problem is already fixed in the emacs trunk. I'll look into this also.
