I don't know if the capitalization of PThreads is significant here.
All I know is that GDB 5.0 supports LinuxThreads (which is the
standard pthreads implementation on Linux), but that support has a
couple of serious problems.  I almost completely rewrote the stuff for
GDB 5.1.  I don't think it is possible to create a patch for GDB 5.0.
So the only advice I can give Kevin is to get a recent snapshot, and
see if that works.
