Having 6 threads (and 3 of them are "emacs") is a total mess. This is what I have for 'emacs -Q' and C-c in gdb:

(gdb) i thr
  Id   Target Id         Frame

It becomes curious to look into your Emacs binary. Can you upload it somewhere?
(To be honest, I'm suspecting a brain-damaged toolchain or glibc setup).
