I skipped my .emacs and started customization all over again, this
time step by step to find out, what gets in the way ... and finaly
found it.  It's:

  '(highlight-completion-mode t nil (highlight-completion))

If this set, the language switch (Ctrl \) doesn't work no more.  With
this feature turned off, everything runs fine.

's this a bug?

Whatever: thank you again for your help
