Thank you!

You might want to consider adding --enable-checking and CFLAGS="-O0 -g3
-ggdb" or equivalent to that until this bug has been found.

Do you still have the core file?

Can you print *face in this stack frame? The relevant gdb commands are
"frame 9" followed by "p *face".

c is ?🌺 .  Are you using that character in your mode line, by any
chance?  Does it show up for you in Emacs?

What would also be helpful would be to source .gdbinit from your src/
directory, (gdb:
"source/home/exec/Projects/git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs/src/.gdbinit"),
then "pp Vfontset_table" to see how large it is.

Thanks!
