It's one of the many commands defined in src/.gdbinit.  If you start
GDB in the src directory, it should read that file automatically (or
loudly refuse to, for security reasons).  Failing that, type "source
/path/to/src/.gdbinit" to force GDB to read it.

Once you did that, just typing "xbacktrace" should show the Lisp
backtrace which should give you a clue what Lisp code is being run.

Don't do that.  Instead, do this:

  (gdb) p current_buffer->directory_
  (gdb) xstring

(Usually, it's better to make sure the value is a string by typing
"xtype" before "xstring".)

See etc/DEBUG for more useful hints.
