There are many things to fix before the poison-xnew patch can go in, but 
I think the issue you found is worth fixing sooner than later.

Among the things that need to change is the opaque types with multiple 
definitions, like arch_lwp_info and private_thread_info.  These need to 
be made into actual class hierarchies.  If anybody is looking for things 
to do, feel free to pick up some patches and post them :)
