Race condition in attach command

- Subject: Race condition in attach command
It seems like the attach command a timing bug. The problem is that when I
attach to a process I often see that gdb cannot read the vDSO image from
the process. When enabling infrun debugging I see that gdb tries to read
the image before the process has actually stopped. I'm observing that
both on ppc64-linux and ia64-linux, with gdb 6.4 and current trunk.
Andreas.
