If your binary is not stripped (you can know by its size -- an unstripped binary should be around 60 or 70 MB), then you already have a debug version. > If you mean GDB, then again, what exactly should I look for? Start with the backtrace. That is (EMACS-PID is the process ID of Emacs, you can see it in the Task manager or by running pslist): gdb -p EMACS-PID (gdb) source /path/to/.gdbinit (gdb) thread 1 (gdb) bt The .gdbinit file comes with the sources. If you don't have the source tree that corresponds to your binary, you can download .gdbinit from the Git repo: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/src/.gdbinit Then look at the output of "bt". Btw, it is best to post all that as a bug report.
