Sorry, I somehow lost your message.

You were trying to debug a multi-threaded program, wasn't it?  I just
realised that libthread_db doesn't support passing along the SSE
registers, so you're probably seeing some initial values from when the
program started up and wasn't multi-threaded yet, or from a thread
that didn't use the SSE unit.

Fixing this requires a serious amount of work.  It requires changes to
both GDB and glibc.  It definitely isn't going to happen overnight,
especially since I only have a Pentium MMX machine.

Sorry,

Mark
