Could you also print the address of lispsym:

p &lispsym

as well as provide the mapped memory ranges; if you have a corefile,

objdump -h <core>

from the shell prompt will work.  If you don't, run "gcore" from gdb to
generate one.

I'm very confused about

         binding = XIL(0x7f6c2ae81440)

Lisp symbols aren't represented as pointers to their structs, there's an
offset in there, by the address of &lispsym (so the 0 word corresponds
to &lispsym[0] rather than a NULL pointer).

On my system, I've never seen the address of &lispsym be so small that
binding would remain in the valid 47-bit address range once we add the
lispsym offset.  This would explain the segfault (though not why GDB
makes inaccurate claims).
