Don't know if this is of any value, but it just occurred to me that
it might not be obvious for everyone how to debug Emacs running
on a terminal. So, here it is:
Open an xterm, and
$ tty
=> /dev/ttyp4 # let's say
$ echo $TERM
=> xterm
(Analogous for other ttys.)
Start a GDB session in Emacs, and
(gdb) set args -nw -t /dev/ttyp4
(gdb) set environment TERM xterm
(gdb) run
Emacs should now run in terminal mode on the xterm, and can be
debugged as usual...
