Then type "gdb c:/Programme/Emacs/bin/emacs.exe" instead.

This is perfectly valid usage, so if you get a Lisp backtrace, I
suggest to debug that, or at least post a reproducible recipe. FWIW,
I don't see an error when I follow this recipe (as close as my
different installation allows).

Another sign of a bug, if you ask me.

`pr' is tricky; I'm guessing that the Windows pipe emulation on the
Emacs side and the console output on the GDB side don't work together
well enough for `pr' to work from within Emacs. (`pr' does work for
me if I invoke GDB from the Command Prompt window outside Emacs.) Use
`xtype' to see the type and xint, xsymbol, xcar, etc., according to
what xtype prints, to see the value.
