Multithreaded program can be dumped into a core file. GDB can load core files and display the list of their threads. Previously, GDB displayed only the LWP (light-weight process) identifier for threads found in the core file. With this update, GDB initializes the libthread_db threads debugging library even while accessing a core file and GDB displays for each thread besides LWP also the pthread_t identifier.
