Name is a number: 60552283. This number gets used consistently a fewtimes in a handful of functions. What GDB command did you use to examine it? I want to make sure there is no confusion here.
If it is a Lisp integer, that sounds like a bug, so I suggest you investigate where that number came from.
No, it is some Lisp type. All file or path names to X11 bitmaps are like this one. And there's one routine, openp, that translates these numbers into real path names – /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps for example.
There was some discussion on this with Eli Zaretskii and Nick Roberts. At some time you were excluded from the list of recipients, but copies can be found on the emacs-pretest-bug list. There I describe that with my Apple version of Gdb I cannot determine the kind of Lisp type. I can use print and p to determine the value of a variable, but pr or xpr fail.
Right now I am updating my Fink system (to easily install public domain software on Mac OS X) – it's just needed and only coincides with this invalid bitmap issue. It will take some hours. After that I'll again try to compile GNU Emacs with Gcc 4.1. Until now this failed because some mismatch with autoconf and such utilities happen which I do not know how to overcome.
I've seen the invalid bitmap message a few more times in *Messages* when running such an emacs and doing some things in it in my regular set-up. Different CFLAGS or LDFLAGS do not change this.
