I will definitely do that.
[ I actually gave up trying to debug it using MPX, mpwm was too broken
  to use.  Also, when the breakpoint hit, the Emacs frame which had gdb
  running was unresponsive as well.  So I ssh'd into my laptop from my
  phone via termux and did all the work from termux when the breakpoint
  was hit.  ]
