No, sorry. The thread ID is produced by NPTL's libthread_db library,
which we do not use on core files because it might not match the
version in use when the program was running; and thus it might produce
garbage (or more often, fail gracefully).
Now that most platforms have moved from LinuxThreads to NPTL, this
might be worth another look. Opportunistically, sometimes we can use
libthread_db and get sensible answers.
