Why did you do the above? Those signals are part of
linuxthreads handling and debugging. There should be
no need to silence them -- if there is, it could be a
sign of something wrong.

This is odd, but may have to do with libthread_db being linked static.
I forget -- do we have linuxthreads debugging working with static link?

What's this? System supplied DSO?

Ah... fork? You know it is dangerous to mix threads and forks, don't
you? If your process has spawned threads before it forks, you're
almost guaranteed to be in bad trouble.
I didn't see any msgs from gdb saying a thread had been spawned,
but the thread detection might be broken eg. by the fact that we
are linked statically.
Can you try dynamic linking, at least of the libthread_db library?
