Not quite.  I recommend you take a look at bfd/elf.c and
bfd/elf64-x86-64.c to see some different ways ".reg/XXXX" sections are
created.  For QNX, you get .reg/TID.  But for other targets you get
(LWPID << 16) + PID and core_pid is updated as we go along.

It looks like the information GDB needs doesn't make it out of BFD.
