I suspect that the way you started Emacs actually ran the installed executable of Emacs, without the patch. Can you verify which executable file is being run? One way to be sure is to try this command after you attach to a running Emacs: (gdb) break gui_define_fringe_bitmap If this says the function gui_define_fringe_bitmap is not defined, you are running the old unpatched executable.
Your suspicion is right. From the same session I've reported the last crash:
(gdb) break gui_define_fringe_bitmap Function "gui_define_fringe_bitmap" not defined. Breakpoint 1 (gui_define_fringe_bitmap) pending.However, I did follow carefully the instructions. The patch reported to have been applied to each of the affected files. And, since I was unfamiliar with the procedure, before running `make', I rechecked each of the patched files to see if they contained the changed, and they did.
As far as I understand, this means that when I call `lib-src/emacsclient' it was actually bringing the installed `emacs' all along. Luckily, for the previous tests, it just so happened that it was identical to the version we wanted to test. But this is no longer the case now, given the patch. Is this correct?
And that's the procedure I had been following given the problem does not occur on a standalone Emacs instance.
That given, does starting it with `src/emacs --daemon', then connecting with `lib-src/emacsclient' seem like the correct procedure to you?
