I get it too, trying to open a .tex file.
> emacs -q VisitorCompAccount20091109.tex
Wrong type argument: keymapp, ("DEAD" . 2110906)
> emacs --no-site-file VisitorCompAccount20091109.tex

Peculiarly, it crashes straight away when started from my home directory
with no arguments, when started from /tmp with a .tex file on the
commandline, but not when started from /tmp with no file supplied on the
commandline. Even opening up that .tex file doesn't crash it once it
starts fine.
If I purge auctex, then no fault. If I reinstall auctex, then fault. I
get nothing useful from --debug-init
If I su to another user and start emacs (with X) (in that user's home
directory or still in my home directory), then no fault. Both
environments are the same as far as I can tell. I've moved all dotfiles
out of the way on my main account, and it still crashes. I've unset
everything locale related (on a whim, given that emacs22 sometimes crashes
when yanking to the clipboard if there's UTF8 data in the clipboard) and
it still crashes.
I dunno. It can't be this buggered for everyone can it? But I can't
tell what's going on with my systems.
