The "/path/to/emacs" part was supposed to be the full absolute name of the
Emacs executable.  Was it?

Sorry, I have no idea what Guix does and how it organizes the installation
tree.  Maybe someone else does.

Note that you said "xfaces.c:5847", but the breakpoint was set on line 5850
instead, which is a different source line.  This is why the breakpoint
breaks immediately at startup.

I believe the problem is that you built Emacs with optimizations.  Please
reconfigure it with

  $ CFLAGS='-O0 -g3' ./configure

and rebuild, then try again with the breakpoint at line 5847 of xfaces.c.
That breakpoint is supposed to break only if Emacs is about to crash by
calling emacs_abort.

So the problem happens with the Iosevka font used as the default face's
font, is that right?

Anyway, please do try to produce the data from GDB I asked, with the
problematic font.
