Do we need a rewritten gdb, or can we have both the current gdb
and a new tgdb for debugging the threaded stuff?
The latter approach seems to be something that would be a lot
easier to integrate without risk of breaking anything currently
existing, and tgdb could even be done as a port until such time as
it's fully ready to take over from the built-in gdb in the system.
