After some thoughts and tests I think that the definitions themselves
are also problematic. After all, due to the \expandafter, the \csname
is expanded first and so automatically locally defined to \relax.

I think you should surround this \xdef's with an additional level of
braces, than this local definition will be lost again and can't fill
up the stack:

{\expandafter\xdef\csname <var name>\endcsname{<some value or macro to
be expanded>}}
