How can you compare this backtrace with the one in the email. This
backtrace is the result of a trap, not a panic. For a panic, KDB
is entered via kdb_enter(), not kdb_trap() as it is in this case.

It is a known issue that kgdb cannot unwind across traps right now.

Do you mean that 'info threads' doesn't work or that 'thread <TID>'
doesn't work in kgdb?
