bug#17753: Cygwin emacs-X11 core dump

[Markus Hoenicka <markus.hoenicka@mhoenicka.de>]

to keep the context of this thread]

Hi,

following Ken's suggestion I started running Cygwin's emacs-X11 from gdb 
a couple of weeks ago. Today Emacs finally crashed, and gdb seems to 
reveal some more information than the previous core dumps. Please let me 
know if the stuff below is of any help. The crash occurred while I was 
moving down a planner-mode buffer using the page down key.

I tried to save a core file for future analysis, but gdb wouldn't let 
me, causing the following error:

(gdb) generate-core-file
warning: cannot close "core.5044": Invalid operation
Can't create a corefile

Is that a known Cygwin limitation? In any case, I'll try to keep gdb 
open for a while. I'll be happy to run additional gdb commands as you 
see fit.

regards,
Markus
