While trying to debug emacs with gdb, I found out, that emacs kills it's own .mdebug section when it dumps (it inserts a new .data section, which kills all references in the .mdebug section). Now I'm looking for a way to start a X session with temacs, which has a working .mdebug section. I'm able to do a temacs -l loadup, which will give me a "normal" looking emacs. But I haven't found a way to get temacs to create a X session. Any hints ?
