Probably, but I don't know what to suggest.  I don't understand the
error messages that you get from GDB, this usually happens when one
tries to attach a debugger to a program that is already being
debugged, which seems to be not the case here.  Weird.

These are not saveplace calls, this is Emacs searching for a string
that includes "saveplace.elc" and "save-place-alist" as substrings.
