I don't know what that would be. I haven't seen anything like that
before. But then, I don't use gdb enough to be very good at interpreting
things.

Yes. Otherwise, jack_fst complains and just exits.

Looking at the code in the function, at least the scribbling part is
trivial code and is not the problem. I am not sure how to set a
breakpoint in a library that is loaded by the program being debugged, so
I am not sure how to narrow it down further.

Well, I don't get anything when I try to run it with notepad either. I
don't really know what that means.
In the case of jack_fst, it appears to crash visibly the same way,
regardless whether under gdb or not. So it appears to be working for me,
for whatever reason. For what it is worth, I compiled and installed jack
from source.
