The current gdb snapshots have fairly decent support for pthreads. I'd be careful though with "complex, threaded C++ applications". That has always beed a problem with gdb (at least on other platforms where threads were supported). This is - at least partially - due to the inherent, er, weirdness of C++. Elinos does support pthread debugging btw.
