gdb, threads, and Red Hat Linux 6.2

[Tom Tromey]

I'm using x86 Red Hat Linux 6.2 and the latest cvs gdb (I updated
earlier today).

I'm debugging a Java program (which therefore uses threads).

Every time I `next' I get this:

    (gdb) n
    Using pending wait status for LWP 26660.
    Received CPU time limit exceeded in LWP 26660 while waiting for SIGSTOP.
    11      String z = ("z" + fred ()).intern ();
    (gdb) 
    Using pending wait status for LWP 26660.
    12      System.out.println (z);

Are these `pending wait' messages useful?  Intentional?
What about the CPU time limit message?

I'd rather not see them.  Is there a way to disable them?
