No success to report in getting that, but GDB ate all my 16G of memory in the middle of work day in trying to get the backtrace, and was still busy: #v+ CPU: 0.2% user, 0.0% nice, 0.2% system, 0.1% interrupt, 99.6% idle Mem: 11G Active, 1242M Inact, 2730M Wired, 501M Cache, 2268K Free Swap: 4096M Total, 4093M Used, 2780K Free, 99% Inuse PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND 66143 root 1 52 0 15860M 12399M select 4 8:17 69.19% gdb751 #v- I'll run the emacs build under resource limits, and hopefully get you a useful stacktrace tomorrow.
