Subject: gdb crash examining "this" in C++

I have a repeatable crash in my program using gdb to debug a C++ program.  The 
crash happens when I view local variables, then click the "+" symbol to expand 
the view of "this".

When I select "Local Variables" from the View menu, the stack window pops up and 
shows the stack where my program is located.

There are two ways I have this happening.  One way is to let the program run 
until it hits an error in my code, so my program gets a segmentation violation.
In this case I get the following message about gdb:

The instruction at "0x6633c540" referenced memory at "0x65676471".  The memory 
could not be "read".

In the other case, I set a breakpoint before my crash, and trying to view this 
locks up gdb and I have to kill it with the task manager.

What's really weird is that it was working great with this program for the last 
week.  I had a bad bug - and infinite loop in my program, and couldn't get my 
program to terminate or gdb to quit, so I reset my computer.  Could I have 
damaged something gdb depended on?  It's been whacky since then.  I was running 
a slightly earlier gdb, but updated to the latest just now to make sure the bug 
still existed.
