Public bug reported:
GDB 7.8 has a broken --batch functionality. In batch mode gdb is not
able to fetch a proper backtrace and instead prints two garbled frames
that have nothing to do with the actual process (always two apparently).
It works perfectly fine when one runs gdb without batch and runs the
exactly same commands.
This breaks all KDE software backtracing/crash bug reporting!
# How to reproduce
echo "thread apply all bt" > /tmp/instr
gdb --batch -x /tmp/instr -p `pidof kate` /usr/bin/kate
