-XVECTOR is a macro, and therefore GDB does not know about it.
-GDB cannot evaluate "p XVECTOR (this_command_keys)".
+XVECTOR is a macro, so GDB only knows about it if Emacs has been compiled with
+preprocessor macro information.  GCC provides this if you specify the options
+`-gdwarf-2' and `-g3'.  In this case, GDB can evaluate expressions like
+"p XVECTOR (this_command_keys)".
 
-However, you can use the xvector command in GDB to get the same
-result.  Here is how:
