(gdb) p string1=0x40af4785 that told GDB to set the value of string1 to 0x40af4785. I don't think that's what you meant.
(gdb) pr (88425796 . That got an error because the value had the wrong type. It is a string, not a Lisp_Object. ... My apologies; I misunderstood what to do. On looking further re_match_2_internal does appear to be the relevant function. Meanwhile, by accident, on a CVS rebuild I did a `make bootstrap' rather than a `make bootfast' and thereby deleted the slow instance of emacs that I was using. I hope to get back to you next week. (As I said, none of the Emacs code looks wrong to me. An instance of RMAIL takes several days and several thousand spam mail messages to slow.) -- Robert J.
