 (gdb) frame 8
 (gdb) p data
 (gdb) xtype

Then use the appropriate "x" command according to the type shown by
"xtype".  E.g., if "xtype" says 'data' is a symbol, use "xsymbol" to
show what symbol is that; if it says it's a string, use "xstring",
etc.

Wrong thread, I think.  Try other threads ("thread N" will switch to
thread number N, "info threads" will show all of them).  You want the
thread whose frame #0 is on line 27710 of xdisp.c, as you reported in
the original bug report.
