[Bug nptl/2696] New: NPTL libthread_db misbehaves at startup of a static executable

["drow at sources dot redhat dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

In short, there is no way to either enable libthread_db at _start time for a
static binary, or find the appropriate time to initialize it later.  I propose
allowing it to initialize, and then reporting the "creation" of the first thread
once the pthreads library is initialized.

The patch is here:

Without a fix for this problem, GDB can not debug static executables which use NPTL.
