That's annoying. gdb is quite memory-hungry when dealing with big
programs, but as long as you're not running out of memory or swap it
should work. AFAIK anyway. I remember having to compile only parts
of a big program with debug support, years ago on a machine that was
pretty small and slow by current standards.
If you can't get gdb to work then another possibility is the low-tech
approach: add some debugging printf's to RangeVarGetCreationNamespace.
