A good first cut:

1.) get the pid of emacs, with something like ``ps waux | grep -i emacs'' at a 
shell.  We'll call it PID
2.) run gdb
3.) at the gdb prompt '(gdb)', type:
        attach PID
and then wait for gdb to load emacs.
4.) if you get a gdb prompt back, type:
        where
and send us the results. 

It's entirely possible that Drew's suggestion re: dribble-file is more helpful.

Hope this helps,
