What Emacs command triggered the problem which happened before you
attached GDB?  Above, you are talking about not being able to kill
Emacs with "C-x C-c" when persistent-scratch is used -- is that what
you did there before attaching GDB?

What do you have on line 15474 of xdisp.c in the source tree from
which this binary was produced?  I don't think I understand how
redisplay_internal called emacs_abort in this case.

Likewise here: what do you have on line 11117 of xdisp.c, in
message3_nolog function?  I don't understand how emacs_abort got
called here, either.

Thanks.
