Before I had Emacs compiled with compiler optimisations and stripped debug symbols.. maybe that's why?

Hmm, not sure that's what you're looking for.
`pp` gave `Undefined command`. I started gdb from another Emacs instance
like described in the DEBUG document if that matters.

Let me know if/how I should further investigate.
