The one problem I see is that there are still global variables
that seem to get clobbered if there are multiple inferiors,
in particular pd_session and pd_brk_addr.  Those will get
overwritten by each pd_activate call for each inferior.

Note that pthdb_session_init registers the pid, so the resulting
pd_session should be different for each inferior.  If you just
overwrite it, then the pid values passed to all callbacks will
always reflect only the latest inferior.

Similarly, pd_brk_addr is potentially different in each inferior,
if libpthread is loaded at different addresses.

You should create a struct containing all per-inferior thread-
related data members, and then allocate one such struct per
inferior.

Bye,
Ulrich
