Thanks for that quick intro to setting conditional breakpoints.

 I did

(gdb) condition 3 error_symbol!=<num1> && error_symbol!=<num2> && ..

and looks like that worked.

But it looks like I have a different backtrace than the one you got.

(gdb) p error_symbol
$3 = 49824
(gdb) xsymbol
$4 = (struct Lisp_Symbol *) 0xc87bd0 <lispsym+49824>
"void-variable"
(gdb) condition 3 error_symbol!=41328 && error_symbol!=49824
(gdb) c
Continuing.

Breakpoint 3, Fsignal (error_symbol=19056, data=16197139) at eval.c:1471
1471        = (NILP (error_symbol) ? Fcar (data) : error_symbol);
(gdb) p error_symbol
$5 = 19056
(gdb) xsymbol
$6 = (struct Lisp_Symbol *) 0xc803a0 <lispsym+19056>
"error"
(gdb) bt
