Hi,
When trying to debug a dlopen() call in gdb 6.8 on debian/unstable,
i get:

   ...
   [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
   Error while reading shared library symbols:
   Cannot find new threads: generic error

I'm using kernel 2.6.24 on a recent debian/unstable libc6.

Where does that error come from?
