GDB threading/FP bug

There's a floating point bug in GDB that occurs when debugging a
program with thread libraries linked in.  I've seen it occur with gcc
3.0.4/gdb5.0 3.1.1/gdb 5.2.1 and I believe also gcc 3.0.2/gdb
19991004.  As shown below, the first FP operation that GDB does is
turned into a NAN.  Subsequent operations succeed.  The non-gdb
execution is listed for comparison.  Anyone know if there's a few in
the works for this?  (I tried to search the newsgroup for relevant
reports but its hard to see through all the spam.)

-----------example test.cpp--------------------
#include <stdio.h>

void foo() {
    double bar = (double)0;
    printf("<< %f >>\n", bar);
}

int main() {
    foo();
    foo();
    return 0;
}
-----------example test.cpp--------------------

$ gdb -v
GNU gdb 5.2.1

$ gcc -v
