endless loop if the stack is broken

Hi,

I am trying to use insight for debugging an embedded device via gdbserver.

Everything seems to work nice, but for some reason the stack is broken.
When I ask insight to display to stack it froze.

In the gdb console, if I type bt, I saw that threre is a recursion on 
the same function pthread_start_thread.


I don't know how it could be fixed, but it will be nice if there is a 
way to limit the stack depth ie insight try to dump only first X 
functions from the stack.


Also there no way to interrupt insight in this case, it could be nice to 
have still a working gui/stop button.

thanks


Matthieu
