I added this to my .zshrc

if [[ $ZSH_EVAL_CONTEXT == 'file' ]]; then
	printf "autosuggestions loaded"
  source "./.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh"
  source "./.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh"
fi

This fixed my terminal from crashing.

this if statement will only run when a new window is open and wont get triggered

I have the same problem!

Step to produce:

~% zsh
~% source ~/.zshrc
~% [1]    26129 segmentation fault  zsh

My .zshrc:

source $HOME/.antigen/antigen.zsh
antigen use oh-my-zsh
antigen bundle zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions
antigen bundle zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting
antigen apply

My environment:

~% zsh --version
zsh 5.2 (x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0)

~%  sw_vers        
ProductName:    Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.10.5
