Please run this from the `src' directory, since it includes a .gdbinit
file which will greatly help in debugging Emacs.

That is no good: your Emacs binary is somehow stripped, so it will be
very hard to debug it.  Please modify your build procedure so that
Emacs is not stripped.

Why ``Stopped''?  Did you type something to stop the job?
