That's exactly what I do. 
I mean there that when I have nautilus hanging and when I attach gdb to it - I 
do in terminal: gdb, then: attach ####(nautilus process no.) - it stops at the 
line like this 

[New Thread 0xb6ad1930 (LWP 8125)]
and nothing happens then, it doesn't end by the line with (gdb) something like
.......
Loaded symbols for /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libmurrine.so
0xb8075430 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
(gdb) 
where I can type "thread apply bt" (in comparison with the succeeded log-file 
attached above)
And everything I type in this terminal window where the gdb attach process 
didn't finalize correctly - nothing works, I can't even get back my ordinary 
startup line "(user)@(computername):~$".
So, as I described above: 
- I try to open any nautilus window to start another nautilus process with 
another process no.
- I open another tab in terminal where I attach gdb to this second nautilus 
process - and this time it succeeds to perform the gdb attach correctly.
I don't know why, but when trying to attach gdb to the first hanging nautilus 
process - it doesn't work.
