 | Well, emacs does a lot of semi-unclean things other software doesn't,
 | so when it doesn't work it isn't obvious who's fault it is.

 Here you go!

 Somehow emacs tries to unregister frame info for a symbol it did not register.
 Don't abort for now. This worked before because the previous version of gcc
 did not bother unregistering. Adding debugging printfs makes emacs core
 dump, where other programs work fine.
