Description jml 2001-02-04 10:00:06 UTC

gdb does not recognize threads in a multithreaded application when it
is using linuxthreads.

Fix: 

Recompile gdb with correct options (maybe some support code needed)?

linuxthreads, starting from 2.1.3_1 with the stack and priority fixes,
is very usable, and could be supported more fully (perhaps replacing
libc_r some time?)
How-To-Repeat: Start debugging any threaded program, "info threads" says no threads.

The Synopsis of this PR has been changed because it was misleading. 

I'm not sure how this PR can possibly move forward without someone 
submitting patches.  Anyone?
