This (and all the other backtraces I posted or mentioned) was from the
scenario where I see the long delay, i.e. using pdf-view-mode; with
doc-view-mode, the delay is so short (a couple of seconds) that it may
be difficult to switch from the Emacs GUI to the shell and invoke gdb
before the image is displayed.
