> On Windows 8, with Emacs 24.4.1 (from Dani) and Org mode version

Is that video worth watching?  I mean, what could a video of a frozen
Emacs tell?

> $ gdb ./emacs.exe
> GNU gdb (GDB) 7.8

This GDB session brings no useful info.  Please follow the method
described in etc/DEBUG under "If the symptom of the bug is that Emacs
fails to respond".

Thanks.
