Then I guess we will have to wait until LLDB folks get their act
together and fix LLDB to not crash before it provides the information
to us?  Or is it possible for you to downgrade to the previous,
working version of LLDB?

The question that we should try answering is this: what variable holds
the C pointer to the data of a Lisp string that is being relocated
and/or compacted by GC between the time the C pointer is assigned and
the time its value is dereferenced?  And I don't see how to answer
that question without understanding how redisplay was called in the
middle of what seems to be loading of a Lisp package, because none of
the items 1 and 3 show anything that could call redisplay.
