Hi Eduardo,

I don't understand. If I compile and run your program on a sample
inferior, tgdb_driver and your driver act the same. What is the exact
difference you are seeing?

With your driver:
   $ ./driver ./test
   GNU gdb 6.3-debian
   Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
   GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are
   welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain conditions.
   Type "show copying" to see the conditions.
   There is absolutely no warranty for GDB.  Type "show warranty" for details.
   This GDB was configured as "i386-linux".
   (gdb) No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.
   file ./test
   Reading symbols from /home/bob/cvs/cgdb/cgdb/builddir/tgdb/tgdb-base/src/tmp/test...done.
   Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
   (gdb) (gdb) Quit

With tgdb_driver:

   $ ./tgdb_driver ./test
   GNU gdb 6.3-debian
   Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
   GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are

   Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

   (tgdb) Quit
   (tgdb) 

In both cases, I ran 
  $ kill -s INT PID

This is tested on a Debian box, with GDB GNU gdb 6.3-debian.
