Jeff mentioned recently that with a NPTL-enabled glibc, gdb debugging of
any threaded app fails. For example:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/tausq/userspace/thread_test2
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Error while reading shared library symbols:
find_new_threads_callback: cannot get thread info: generic error

Two fixes, one in glibc and one in gdb, are required to fix this. The
attached patch is the glibc portion.

* sysdeps/hppa/nptl/tls.h (DB_THREAD_SELF): Fix definition.

Please apply if ok.

Randolph,

Thanks, I'll test this and check it in if everything is OK.

Cheers,
Carlos.
