It's being changed from {42000,0,0} to {0,0,0} in
infrun.c:contect_switch() at the last line in the function.
The condition (in_thread_list ...) condition is false. Neither
save_infrun_state() nor load_infrun_state() is called.

Here's the parameter to context_switch() at entry:

      syscall_id = 0x5
    }
  },
