not getany output from:

When I set a break point on the entry point of one of the soon-to-be-created threads,
I get a diagnostic message:

Program terminated with signal SIGTRAP, Trace/Breakpoint trap.
The program no longer exists.

Are you sure your glibc and gdb were both configured to support threads when they were compiled?
