The software packages providing these functions are installed as productive 
versions on my Mac, i.e. stripped. When Gdb loads GNU Emacs it complains about 
a lot more, for example:

        Reading symbols for shared libraries 
.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...............warning: Could not find object 
file 
"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_archivers_bzip2/bzip2/work/bzip2-1.0.6/blocksort.o"
 - no debug information available for "blocksort.c".

Anyway, since I changed -g to -ggdb the built emacs binary runs OK! No 
complaints. Even the mistake I had when I was tellings Gdb

        set args "-xrm 'Emacs*iconName: TeX Live-2015' -T 'TeX Live 
2015@25.0.95' -geometry 133x75+1111+81 --debug-init -fn 'Lucida Sans 
Typewriter:autohint=true:antialias=true:size=9'"

the double quotes, is not causing any reaction! The calendar setup with Easter 
related local holidays produces a warning, which is clearly not related to the 
earlier crashes.

We have to expect it, otherwise we would be surprised.
