Once the plug-in is started, you can attach gdb to the running process
with gdb's "attach" command.

One common trick is to put a line like this in the plug-in you're
debugging:

g_message ("plug-in PID: %d\n", getpid ());
kill (getpid (), 19);

with signal 19 being SIGSTOP.  Then in gdb you do:

(gdb) attach 1234
(gdb) continue

where 1234 is the plug-in's PID.  You may have to "continue" more than
once.
