It turns out gdb is installed with GNU Octave:

C:\Octave\Octave-4.2.2\bin>

I copied that bin directory and ran gdb from the copy to avoid
(possibly) creating unwanted files under C:\Octave. I'll paste the
output below, but it may not help since gdb said "no debugging symbols
found." Please let me know if it would be useful to execute any other
gdb commands.

Perhaps I should try using gdb on an inkscape.exe built as per this page:

http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_Inkscape_on_Windows_with_MSYS2

How can debugging symbols be created using MSYS2 ?

Trying again using the same file as yesterday still produces the crash -- either by dragging the roundness-adjusting nodes or using the Rx or Ry settings -- when adjusting the red rectangle on the top-left of the attached file.
