Bug 2498034

gdb --version
GNU gdb (Fedora Linux) 17.2-1.fc44

gdb seems to run quite often into an intern error.  Can be reproduced most of the time  in a VM updated to 2026-07-08  

I suspect that this might happen only with  multi-threaded programs
reproducer with audacious 


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
I would say reproducibility is most of the time  ( 8-9 out of 10 )

1.start audacious and play an audio stream e.g https://listen-ssvcbfbs.sharp-stream.com/ssvcbfbs22.aac ( works probably w/o active audio stream )
2. pkill --signal 11 audacious 
3. coredumpctl list might show two new entries  for audacious and  for gdb(!) 
4. coredumpctl debug <pid_audacious>   to provoke the interal error
 
Actual Results:
internal gdb error , session terminates and  creates two(!) new entries in coredumpctl list  


Expected Results:
get to the (gdb) prompt  to enter gdb command like  "bt full"

Additional Information:
I'll attach output of a kvm session, 2nd  try forced the error and got the backtrace

---------------------
A fatal error internal to GDB has been detected, further
debugging is not possible.  GDB will now terminate.
