> Hmm, perhaps it is a native GDB looking at a threaded core file? In that case, yes the thread-db should drop its self on top. If that is causing an internal error then there is something messed up that should be fixed.

PS:

Something I've wondered about is a command of some sort to tell GDB to
not let the thread target interceed the ptrace / core / procfs / remote
target so that, selectively the user could debug either the raw or the
abstracted threaded target.

As a second mechanism, a way of moving between the threaded and ptrace /
... target stratum.
