Does this mean that work on CLONE_PID is abandoned? I assume we will
need this functionality at some point , not to mention that it is suppose to
be much more efficient.
I honestly don't know what the future tid/pid mapping for Linux are
expected to look like, but I expect a /proc based GDB would be a plus
reguardless.
Thanks
