I have a different layout, which also puts the customisation (or  
desktop/session settings) into different files – and I suppose it's  
the customisation that leads to your crashes (I really have no  
customisation in ~/.emacs and neither a *common* customisation file):

        (defconst mWS (symbol-value 'window-system)
          "Running as some windowing system's client,
           or as slave of a terminal emulator?")
	(setq custom-file (format "~/.emacs-Abrichtung-%d.el" emacs-major- 
version))
        (load custom-file)
        (load (format "~/.emacs_%s" mWS))

In ~/.emacs blocks are built for different Emacs versions.


I'd recommend to remove ~/.emacs-custom.el and put its contents into  
both ~/.emacs2?-custom.el files.
