Well, the issue is that the emacs terminal emulator does not fully
support the [n]curses escape sequences needed to position the cursor
for your pager (e.g. less). An amusing thing is that the emacs
terminal emulation isn't powerful enough to run a recursive emacs: try
"M-x shell" and then run "emacs -nw" at the shell prompt. You'll get
the same message.

I would think the easiest way to deal with this issue would be
to not allow crash to use "less" if the TERM type is "vanilla".
And if it is vanilla, fall back to using "more", which is what
is done now if "less" doesn't exist on the host system.
