remote_get_threadlist has this:

  getpkt (&rs->buf, &rs->buf_size, 0);

  if (*rs->buf == '\0')
    *result_count = 0;
  else
  ...

would it work to just make that:

  if (*rs->buf == '\0')
    return 0;

instead?  That'd be easier to read, and leave the warning if
something did go bust with the thread listing for targets
that do support the packet (not sure there are any though).
