Solaris fcntl CPU/Lock update

gdb is thread aware. "help running" shows thread commands.

Note that gdb does not report the libraries it loads to support itself. The
ones listed are being searched for symbols to support the program being
debugged. If the thread library is being searched, it is because the program
being debugged requires it, or one of the libraries required by the program
requires it.

My guess is that one of the libraries listed above libpthread in the debug
output requires pthreads. Probably LDAP, since it is listed just prior.
libmp is interesting too. Multi-processor?
