I don't know, but it might as well be the culprit. Does the problem go away if you remove semantic.cache? What other files, if any, do you have in the src directory that are not part of the CVS? If semantic.cache came with the distribution, i.e. it's not something created on your machine, then please tell that to whoever created the distribution you downloaded. Bingo! I removed semantic.cache and the problem went away. I believe semantic.cache came with the distribution (from nqemacs, I think). So, there is no bug, as long as the cache file is not part of the Emacs distribution - it's no doubt normal that the regexp cannot handle such a huge file.
