            Bug ID: 107672
           Summary: Complete freeze if breakpoint is placed in gtk signal
                    handler
           Product: Wayland
           Version: 1.0.x
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: XWayland
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gunter at peterpall.de
        QA Contact: xorg-team at lists.x.org

If you place a gdb breakpoint in in a signal handler of a wxGTK or GTK
application (for example MathCtrl::OnPaint in wxMaxima) mouse, screen and
keyboard completely freeze, if this event handler was triggered by a GUI event.
The keyboard is physically working, still, and with a bit of luck one can
switch from wayland to a text console and kill gdb from there - which returns
the wayland session to a working order.

Don't know if that is a bug or if it is completely unavoidable so I would
accept a "WONTFIX".
