This was irrelevant.
You are running into looping, due to premature expansion within a 
"moving argument".
This is LaTeX's concept of `fragile' command, that is hitting you
in a non-obvious way...

Sure can.

Those _s are presumably really accented letters.
One of the packages defines these as active tokens,
so they are fragile and need to be \protect'd, as follows:

      \begin{quiz}*{qz:TeX-a}{\footnotesize(Pour remettre \protect _ 0 les 
 scores, cliquez sur d\protect _but)}


This would be the same if you use  \`a  and \'e ;
you would need  \protect\'a  and  \protect\'e  in this context,
as  \quiz  results in this argument being expanded and stored for later use.


I was getting the same kind of overflow, until using \protect in this way.
After that it was just fine, even with Xy-pic and all the other packages
that you had commented-out.

Hope this helps,

Oh; and please post a URL to your quizzes when finished.
