Two threads hitting the same break

["Paul Koning" <Paul_Koning at Dell dot com>]

Gentlepeople,

I'm running into a problem in trying to add threads support for NetBSD
to GDB.

The situation is a breakpoint set in a function that is called by
multiple threads.  One thread hits the break.  It gets the signal, the
process stops, GDB gets control, and sees what it expects.

I then tell GDB to continue.  It does a stepi, reinserts the break, and
lets the process go.  But the other thread has also hit the same
breakpoint.  That signal is delivered at the time I do the continue --
so at that point the break instruction isn't present.  The result is
that GDB sees this as a SIGTRAP at break address + 1 (this is on i386),
and when I continue I get a segfault because the thread is continued in
the middle of an instruction.

I think I've seen discussion of this sort of issue, possibly in the
code, but I'm not having much luck finding it.  Any suggestions for the
right way to handle this?
