    maierh> Maybe you have set the SHELL environment variable. If yes

The installation of some Rational product has most likely done this.

Likely contenders are Rose or ClearCase.

Tamas, for XEmacs you would set
Options->Troubleshooting->Debug on Error
Options->Troubleshooting->Debug on Signal
Options->Troubleshooting->Debug on Quit
then provoke the error again and send us the *Backtrace* buffer you
get.

It's got to be similar in GNU Emacs.

This will tell us more about the lisp packages involved in this.
