To reproduce this issue, please download many_frames_tty.el from:
https://www.metalevel.at/ei/many_frames_tty.el
Then start Emacs with:
$ emacs -Q -nw --load many_frames_tty.el
Leave it running for a while, then press:
C-g C-g
The expected result is that the loop is interrupted, and this works in
many cases. However, in some cases, Emacs crashes with:
lisp.h:1697: Emacs fatal error: assertion failed: 0 <= nbytes
lisp.h:1697: Emacs fatal error: assertion failed: 0 <= nbytes
Aborted (core dumped)
and sometimes with:
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(+0x28150)[0x77e7df428150]
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0x89)[0x77e7df428209]
./emacs(+0x3f5c5)[0x602bae7015c5]
Aborted (core dumped)
This is related to #77200 in that Emacs also crashes, however the
backtraces are now different, and the crash occurs after C-g C-g.
Please see below two different backtraces I got after such crashes.
Thank you and all the best,
Markus

No, that's not the expected result when you press C-g twice in qwuick
succession on a TTY frame. That sequence invokes the "emergency
escape" procedure.

AFAIU, this backtrace is not relevant: it simply means that Emacs was
stopped by SIGTSTP, and GDB kicked in.

This one happens because we are accessing Lisp strings in the middle
of GC. I installed a fix.
