This seems like an issue in a few ways.  'ps' arguments may differ by
platform.  Other programs might be called 'threadapply' (unlikely for
user stuff but suppose I'm running 2 gdb test suites at the same time).
It doesn't handle cross-host testing (I don't know if we care about that
any more but in the past it was an issue).

So, I wonder if there's a better way to do this.
Like, could the test track PIDs itself?  Then maybe re-attach?

thanks,
Tom
