This isn't the first time I hear VMware stub bugs related to bad
thread id handling.  See here:

 http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-10/msg00586.html

In that message, you see that Michael decided to fix the stub instead. I assume
he must have stumbled on this case you're reporting as well, since it sounds
related, but didn't bother to raise it.  So it seems that handling just
this case wouldn't fix your whole problem.
