The thread ID is not the third word, it's everything from the thread
number to the thread PC. They're freeform, depending on the target, et
cetera. So it's "thread 8201" and GDB tries to give you something
useful. If you upgrade to NPTL, you'll find they get a lot less
intelligible.
You'd need an implementation of the documented -thread-info or
-thread-list-all-threads commands, which have never been defined.
Interesting, another item for my MI-using tools list...
