Go up a few levels to GetMultiXactIdMembers and type "info locals", see
if we can get the values of some of the variables there. Also, if you
can turn the debugging down to -O0, that will make the results in gdb
much more reliable.

It's clear at least that "length" is negative, but what about the other
variables...

Do you use a lot of subtransactions, function, savepoints, anything
like that?

Hope this helps,
