The offending input is obvious:

Texmacs interprets this as a command to go into an infinite loop, and after a couple of hundred iterations, it mercifully throws a segmentation fault and crashes.

Thanks. Anyone know why Texmacs generated this LaTeX?

I know that the TeXmacs -> LaTeX translator is
written in Scheme, and that it's located in:

src/TeXmacs/progs

in the TeXmacs codebase. It's not impossible
to read and fix the code, then send a patch,
for such a bug.
