Sure! Put the defun in a file called breakage.el. Then open emacs -Q
in GDB and evaluate

(require 'comp)
(let ((comp-debug 3) (comp-verbose 3))
  (load (native-compile "breakage.el")))

Then set a GDB breakpoint on
F632d626567696e6e696e672d6f662d73746174656d656e742d31_c_beginning_of_statement_1_0,
continue and evaluate

(c-beginning-of-stmt-1)

In GDB, you should now see the "source" code interspersed with the
disassembly (if you have that enabled).

I'd suggest to try disass/rs next and post the entire output, but you
know your way around gdb much better than I do :-)

The code you're looking for looks like this:

7961      /* calling subr: < */
7962      frame[(int)0] = freloc->R3c__0 ((long long)2, (&frame[(int)0]));
   0x00007fffec660f41 <+3409>:    4c 89 f6    mov    %r14,%rsi
   0x00007fffec660f44 <+3412>:    bf 02 00 00 00    mov    $0x2,%edi

(but different, of course, because of the different architecture).

Thanks!
