My bad, didn't read that section at all.  I read only "Configuring Emacs
for debugging" section because of this text in `report-emacs-bug'
letter: "If Emacs crashed, include the output from 'bt full' and 'xbacktrace'".

Now Emacs is built with -O0 and I need some help, please.

(gdb) bt full
#0  terminate_due_to_signal (sig=607650026, backtrace_limit=1116) at ../../emacs/src/emacs.c:370
No locals.
#1  0x0000000100a28660 in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.
#2  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.

Lisp Backtrace:
Cannot access memory at address 0xadf0

I can print the 'last_marked_index':

(gdb) p last_marked_index
$2 = 41

But what can I do with 'last_marked'?

(gdb) p last_marked[40]
'last_marked' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type

Give me some tips, please. TIA.
