That's strange.  Did you start GDB from the src directory of the Emacs
source tree, perhaps?  If so, try starting GDB from another directory.

If debugexceptions doesn't help even when you start GDB from a
different directory, I need to think about something else.  What
happens on your system is very strange.  These are not "normal"
crashes, AFAICT.  Something else is at work on your system.  Do you
have some unusual software running there, perhaps, or some Windows
feature(s) enabled that is/are usually disabled?
