Hmmm, I just noticed that mips_kill is being used to interrupting
the target ( '\03' / ^C / SIGINT ), instead of installing a SIGINT
handler like at least monitor.c, remote.c and remote-sim.c do.
This looks broken to me -- target_kill is definitelly not the
right target method for this (and neither is the "kill" command).

I forgot to add a new target_thread_alive function, otherwise,
info threads gets rid of the thread I just added.
