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

>How-To-Repeat:
Start debugging any threaded program, "info threads" says no threads.

>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?)
