closing this rather old issue. sorry for not addressing this earlier.
Please could you recheck with the recent 14.04 LTS or 14.10 releases and
reopen the issue if the problem persists?

Title:
'Cannot find new threads: generic error' when debugging certain
applications
Status in “gdb” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gdb
When debugging bug #423252 I noticed that GDB looses control over the
target application if it executes getpwnam when using libnss-ldap. GDB
displays the following error message:
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Cannot find new threads: generic error
It is impossible to continue to work with the application after the
above message has been displayed. For example, trying to execute
'next' results in the following error message:
Cannot execute this command while the selected thread is running.
I suspect this could actually be a kernel bug rather than a GDB bug
(I've seen a fair deal of ptrace breakage at work), but I have no way
of verifying that at the moment.
