The way I debugged infloops in Emacs was to use the GDB return command
on each frame till control got out of that frame.  Eventually I would
find a frame that never returned to its caller.  I would then arrange
to stop the program while inside that frame's function and find the
range of code contained in the loop.

Then I would figure out where the code was supposed to exit that loop.
After that, it is a matter of debugging why it does not exit.
