>Description:
I was just looking at an I think single-threaded program. Just
attached to a running process and did 'thread apply all bt' which just
gave me one thread's backtrace.

Then I tried leaving gdb:

(gdb) quit
A debugging session is active.

        Inferior 1 [LWP 0] will be detached.

Quit anyway? (y or n) y

A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.

(gdb)

On NetBSD-6.99.32/amd64 from Sunday, and still on 6.99.40/amd64 from today.
All compiled with clang, in case it matters.

>How-To-Repeat:
start a program, e.g.
python2.7

While it's running, attach to it using
gdb python2.7 <PID>

leave gdb by pressing 'q'

It does work for /bin/cat, so it's not all programs that are broken this way,
but all programs I wanted to debug :)
