Thanks for the explanations.
It sounds like the -readnever option you propose would be useful only
in the pstack-like situation. So how about adding a -pstack option
which will do whatever it takes for GDB to emulate pstack, i.e. avoid
reading the symbols, produce a backtrace, and then detach from the
process?
