Emacs 29.0.50 is before Emacs 29.1 was released?

This is not a valid character, I wonder how it got to this function.
Please do the below and tell what GDB produces as result:

  (gdb) frame 18
  (gdb) p/x it->c
  (gdb) p/x it->char_to_display
  (gdb) p it->method
  (gdb) pgrowx it->glyph_row

If GDB says it doesn't know abot "pgrowx", type this:

  (gdb) source /path/to/emacs/src/.gdbinit

and then repeat the pgrowx command.

Also, any chance you can describe what were you doing when the abort
happened?  In particular, what was in the buffer that was on display
in this window?
