I am trying to debug Emacs 19.34b under FreeBSD 2.2.1 (gdb 4.16).
Whenever I try a `next' or `step' in gdb, it ends up with gdb errors
`Cannot access memory at <some very strange address>' or `Unable to
insert breakpoint at <some very strange address>'.  Is it Emacs or is
it gdb?  Any suggestions appreciated.
