What a quick reply. Your patch didn't help, but if gave me an idea where to
look. I searched for other calls of 'printf_filtered ("[New %s]\n"' (11
matches) and it worked, when I added the call to target_terminal_ours in
module procfs.c to the first occurrence of 'printf_filtered ("[New %s]\n"':

		    if (!in_thread_list (temp_ptid))
		      {
			  target_terminal_ours ();
			printf_filtered ("[1:New %s]\n",
					 target_pid_to_str (temp_ptid));
			add_thread (temp_ptid);
		      }

A closer look revealed that the problem is caused by prompt_for_continue in
fputs_maybe_filtered. It seems as if gdb counts the 'New thread' messages
and prompts for continuation according to page height.
When I set page height in gdb to 0, the problem also disappears.

Thanks

Klaus

Real programmers don't comment their code.  It was
hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
