Summary:                    gdb error due to missing symbol ps_lgetxregsize
Description: 
Running gdb command on a core file results in the following message being
displayed.

  [GDB will not be able to debug user-mode threads: ld.so.1: gdb: fatal:
relocation error: file /lib/64/libthread_db.so.1: symbol ps_lgetxregsize:
referenced symbol not found]

Upstream bug:
<http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15420>

Patches availbale.

Afaict gdb, at least on my Solaris 11.1 host, is broken anyway (can't
examine running processes, can't examine core file), so not sure if fixing
this really adds much.
