[PATCH] Multi-threaded core dumps for 2.5.21.

Attached is a re-base of the 2.5.18 patch posted last week.

This patch has been tested on my SMP system and seems very stable, so far. I
would like very much to see this feature added to the 2.5.x kernels and more
milage given to it.

For ISV's not having the ability to create core dumps for pthread
applications is a strong justification for not using Linux. Now is a good
time for Linux support the ISV's WRT core files for multi-threaded
applications.

To use the core files from multi-threaded applications, created with this
patch you may need to strip the objects from /lib/libpthread. For my system
'strip /lib/libpthread-0.9.so makes things good, YMMV.

Please apply this patch.
