OK, installed it but it's completely unusable with gdb active. I'll leave it overnight and see what will happen.

Unusable in what sense - stuck loading symbols? Does xbmc even start (blue bubbles, menu etc.)? As long as you have enough free RAM to begin with, I find running under gdb very little different to running a non-debug build. I have a 512MB Pi with 128MB swap and have no problems running gdb when setting gpu_mem=128.

It's painfully slow, but it works. Starting Youtube addon took 5 minutes. My Pi is 512mb too, gpu_mem=128 and 128 swap.
P.S. Or maybe it needed some time to fully start, because now it looks to working almost normally. Only suspend doesn't turn off/on my TV through CEC.

Sorry if I hijack this thread - I'm not actually using OpenELEC - but it seems the more appropriate place to discuss issues with the newclock4 branch (also, others can test and confirm if they experience the same behavior).
While debugging an issue I'm experiencing with PR 5237, I've noticed that when switching from a 3D mode (the movie I'm testing is half SbS, if that matters) to monoscopic - either via the OSD or via a remote button mapped to StereoModeToMono - I actually get 2 images on the TV (side-by-side), although I get the notification that the mode was changed (from CStereoscopicsManager::ApplyStereoMode). Switching again to monoscopic fixes it. Sometimes, but very rare, I don't need to toggle it 2 times. Does anybody experience the same? (or: Is this a know issue?)

@spannerz: Based on the information you posted in your other VU+ thread, I see it is generating an exception during the socket open - could it be a TCP IPv4/IPv6 issue? Who is the author/maintainer of this addon?
Other than that, you need to go back through the builds and find the last working version - that may provide some clue as to what is going on, or what has changed.
