Do you strip Emacs when you install it? If so, please don't, because

Understood. I built that emacs with -O2 and without " --enable-checking='yes,glyphs' --enable-check-lisp-object-type" as it's my daily driver version.
If you can reproduce this problem, please post the recipe; otherwise I
don't see how this could be of any use. Too bad.
I'll work on getting a recipe.
Why isn't there a -g3 in the compiler switches? AFAIK, the default
configuration supplies it.
Yes, I did not add that switch; I do that in my debug builds.
Did you specify CFLAGS at configure time?
If so, please add -g3 to the switches, and I suggest to use -Og,
not -O2, for better debuggability.
Will do.
Did you merge the harfbuzz branch with master, so there's no pdumper
in your build?
Actually, sorry for that confusion. I realized that I had the --with-harfbuff switch since when I tried the harfbuff branch, but forgot to remove that from my build script.
If not, why do I see CANNOT_DUMP in the list of
features?
This was built using the latest master (i.e. with pdumper and no harfbuzz).
I'll try to get a recipe.
