I captured a backtrace from a totally hung emacs earlier, which I
include below. Somewhere down the line, this is actually being called by
my code.

I've also found that removing bib-cite-setup-mouse-function from
after-change-functions seems to help reduce CPU usage for a while.
However, this function seems to do more or less nothing (it sets a few
text properties).

I will try and reproduce the total hang -- obviously, this is difficult
because it take a while for it to happen.
