well, I was in a long-running emacs session which all of a sudden became
unresponsive.
ISTR that long ago the crashed emacs's windows became blank and that was
a clear indication of a crash. Now I see the text and menus but emacs
does not respond, and I have to realize that it is crashed and not
busy.  Eventually I do realize that and find the gdb screen window, but
by this time I have no idea what I was doing last.

Is there a way to access view-lossage in gdb?
that would be able to jolt my memory...

If you know that you know nothing, you know too much.
