Interesting.  On Windows ME this stalls somewhere in the menu-bar code.
Funnily, `table--point-entered-cell-function' would establish a direct
connection of such menu-bar behavior to repeated calls of point-entered.
I don't see anything the like in sgml-mode.

Anyway, it seems that setting point triggers `sgml-point-entered' which
sets point such that it triggers sgml-point-entered ....  Such hooks
must not be allowed to set point unless they make sure that they do not
end up in text which triggers the hook again.
