>Description:
I want to set a breakpoint at address 0x300.  This works fine:
 b *0x300
Now I want to only have it break if it is thread 1, so I do:
 b *0x300 thread 1
gdb returns:
 A parse error in expression, near `thread 1'.
I chatted with Daniel Jacobowitz about the problem and he believes the problem is that what is after the '*' is treated as an expression and the expression parser can't handle running off the end the way the symbol name parser can.
