Right, that made the `emacs` binary fail to find the pdmp file, so
removing the pdmp file like I did above should be a good strategy to
reproduce the same problem.

There was discussion to make Emacs follow the symlink to try and find
the corresponding pdmp file, so maybe that's what you're seeing.
