gdb 5, linuxthreads, working??

["Oldham, Adam" <adam.oldham@marconi.com>]

Hello,
I've tried to read as far back as I could in the gdb lists and in newsgroups
and I cannot figure out what is wrong, so any help would be appreciated.  I
am currectly running Mandrake 7.2 with kernel 2.2.17, glibc 2.1.3, gcc
2.95.2, gpc 20010502, and gdb 5.  I have a heavy program I have written to
utilize linuxthreads and calls pthread_create to run the threads.  When
debugging the program with gdb 5 (both the binary distributed with Mandrake
and compiling from source) i get this with my executable:
...
This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-linux-gnu"...rw_common (): write: No
such file or directory.

warning: unable to set global thread event mask
[New Thread 1024 (runnable)]
rw_common (): write: No such file or directory.

warning: stop_or_attach_thread: generic error
(gdb)

Needless to say, this only recognizes the first thred, when others are
created, the info thread command returns nothing.

Now....
I downloaded the 20010525 snapshot and compiled it.  I got none of the
errors above and I can run my program with it and it will pick up and
recognize all my threads.  However, when setting breakpoints, I am getting
string range errors and segmentation faults and arithmetic faults.  Its a
development version, I expect that.

So.... can anyone give me an option of something to do to debug my threads?

Thanks,

Adam Oldham
