gdb stopped working, I can't recall why -- must have been some update of the operating system.

What happens when I try to debug my C++ application is this:

hikaru:~/projects/cwchessboard/cwchessboard-objdir>gdb ./tstpgnread

[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Error while reading shared library symbols:
Cannot find new threads: generic error
Cannot find new threads: generic error
(gdb)

This application is NOT using threads.

Is this a known problem that I can solve myself or is more information needed?

If I first start the program and later attach to it, there are no problems.
