Yes I found out the commandline with set -x

Yes, I can reproduce with:
build-tree/build-exim4-daemon-light/exim
-C /home/srs/DEBs/exim/exim4-4.76/test/eximtest/exim4.conf -bV

And with gdb the only output I get is (and no stack)
gdb build-tree/build-exim4-daemon-light/exim

Cannot access memory at address 0xffff548d

(I get this by just requesting: run from the gdb prompt, no file needed)

gdb bug?
