Here's an alternative patch that seems to work for the same test.
Could one of you let me know if it also helps for the problems you saw?

The main change is to remove the thread_db_thread_alive function.  My
ptid_t representation change means that we can call the linux-nat.c
implementation directly.  This change means we might have two threads
"live" at the same time with the same TID - but they'll have different
LWP IDs, so different PTIDs, so GDB won't get confused.

It also (long overdue) removes the dependence on fill_gregset, and
removes a not especially useful call into libthread_db for converting
threads to strings.  There are a number of more possible cleanups,
but this hits the big ones.
