Andrew,
   qThreadInfo only lets the remote pass back target thread IDs to GDB.
GDB then converts the pid into and GDB internal ptid (process + thread ID).
The "to_pid_to_str" function pointer in the target structure is used
to convert a ptid to a printable string. If you are currently using the
remote interface this defaults to looking like "Thread 1" "Thread 2" etc.
I would like the the target to be print whatever it wants.
Regards
Nat
