I've done a kernel patch for Linux which dumps multiple threads
into different corefiles named core.##### where ##### is the PID.
I've been told that the ELF format'll support multiple register in
a core file by having >1 PT_NOTE section.
If I patch the kernel to dump the multiple register sets into a
single core, will GDB with LinuxThreads support recognize the
corefile without modification?
There's only one way to find out: try!
But I expect that it doesn't work without a modification at all.
