* lin-lwp.c: Prevent thread starvation by using a monte carlo method to choose which of several event threads to handle next. (stop_wait_callback): Defer pushback of breakpoint events until later; add SIGTRAP events to the queue of unhandled events. Keep calling waitpid until SIGSTOP retrieved. If more than one non-SIGSTOP event is retrieved, push them back onto the process queue using kill. (count_events_callback, select_singlestep_lwp_callback, select_event_lwp_callback, cancel_breakpoints_callback, select_event_lwp): New functions. Implement monte carlo method for selecting which of several SIGTRAP threads to handle next. Push back the breakpoint event for all threads other than the selected one. (lin_lwp_wait): Call select_event_lwp to decide which of several sigtrapped lwps to handle next. (resume_callback): Disable code that attempts to handle step_resume breakpoints. Let core gdb handle this.
