This typically means that there is a recursive call (or a set of mutually
recursive calls) that does not "bottom out".

I hope you are starting both Aquamacs and the "normal" emacs so that they
don't load any init files at all. For "normal" emacs, that's the -Q switch;
I don't know what it is for Aquamacs. The only way I can think of that this
difference in behavior might arise is by having the different emacsen start
differently.

See the Feedback section in the org manual:

It's likely that you'll get a large backtrace buffer, but it should be
possible to find a cycle of calls that repeats endlessly in the backtrace.

FWIW, I tried this on my emacs (ubuntu 8.04, GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1
(i686-pc-linux-gnu),
Org-mode version 6.28trans) and had no problem.
