Here's what I did: Compile Emacs so that it retains symbol info,
etc. (see C-h C-d).
I ssh'd into my laptop from termux, started an emacsclient there. cd'd
into src/ directory of my git checkout started gdb by saying M-x gdb
RET. In the gdb prompt, I said
(gdb) source .gdbinit
(gdb) break xlwmenu.c:2879
(gdb) run -Q
At this point, emacs -Q should have opened in your machine. I clicked
the menu in the emacs -Q frame and the breakpoint in gdb hit. Make sure
you don't move the mouse or use the keyboard. After the breakpoint hit,
it was a matter of doing what Eli instructed me.
HTH.
