That is incorrect. AFAICT, libthread_db may be stripped
(it must have dynamic symbol table intact; but strip normally
doesn't touch dynamic symbol table anyway).
However, on Linux libpthread.so.0 itself must not be stripped,
or libthread_db will refuse to work with it.

Same applies to LinuxThreads.

No: libthread_db.so.1 must match libpthread.so.0 (both must
come from the same version of glibc).
