Wow this is nice to hear. I hope Mandrake adds these patches asap. I was
hoping gdb 5.0 would support threads natively, but I guess not.

Cooker folks,
I just joined this list. Forgive me if this issue has already been raised
and addressed!
I debug multithreaded servers on Linux, and there are not-so-well-known
patches needed to both GDB 4.18 and Glibc 2.1.3 which are required in
order for GDB to be effectively "thread-aware".
Mandrake 7.1 does not have these patches, it seems!
After some fooling around, I discovered that (conveniently) the Redhat 6.2
Glibc and GDB packages have full thread support, and they install cleanly
as RPM upgrades for Mandrake 7.1.

Matt
