I think that stems from the command name.

 maint set verbose-libthread-db-processing

would get rid of the double show there too.

Paul, by putting this command under the "maint" commands,
are you saying that regular users won't find a need
for this command?  If so, do you think something like:

 set debug libthread-db

instead would be appropriate?  That would be more in
line with the other internal debug commands.

Otherwise, if users are supposed to need this for some
reason, then you should move it out of "maint".
