Yes, IIRC GDB does not use linux-thread-db.c (libthread_db) for core files.
`info threads' displays LWPs (and not real threads) in such case.

LWPs do not have associated pthread_t.

IIRC I tried once to add linux-thread-db.c for core files but for some reason
it was not completely trivial and I rather debugged the specific case by hand
iterating some pthread_t structures for that crash.
