I see this error, too.  Unfortunately I'm not a python guru so this
is rather opaque to me.  gdb itself doesn't provide a gdb.backtrace
method, afaics.

However, despite this message, gvim starts normally.  And emacs-nox as
well as many other CLI applications can be started just fine, too.

But GDB hangs with emacs-X11 for some reason, even if I disable the
python modules.  From a quick GDB session it's not clear why this occurs :(

Oh well.  I'll try to find out why this occurs in the next couple of
days.  Why on earth is it always emacs, the exact opposite of a simple
testcase |(


Thanks,
