[RFA] Fix hand called function when another thread has hit a bp.


Hi.  In http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-11/msg00531.html
I wrote:

Here's a patch.
This is separate from my dummy-frames cleanup patch.

Ok to check in?

2008-12-01  Doug Evans  <dje@google.com>

	* infrun.c (prepare_to_proceed): Document.  Assert !non_stop.
	If scheduler-locking is enabled, we're not going to be singlestepping
	any other previously stopped thread.

	* gdb.threads/hand-call-in-threads.exp: New file.
	* gdb.threads/hand-call-in-threads.c: New file.
