[patch] Fix for PR gdb/10838


Greetings,

In http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10838
gdb attach; detach; attach sequence leaves libpthread in hosed state.

The root cause turned out to be that this:

      td_event_emptyset (&events);
      info->td_ta_set_event_p (info->thread_agent, &events);

is a no-op -- glibc ORs new event bits in, but doesn't clear any already
set bits. To clear them, one must call td_ta_clear_event() instead.

Here is a patch which fixes this in gdb and gdbserver.

Tested (GDB only) on Linux/x86_64 with no regressions.

Thanks,
