# Regression test for a bug that would go like this:
#
# - Run to a breakpoint that is hit by two threads (A and B)
#   simultaneously.
#
# - One of the breakpoint hits is processed (e.g., thread A) and
#   causes a user-visible stop.  The other (thread B) is left pending.
#
# - The user deletes the breakpoint with "del", which causes a
#   confirmation query.
#
# - By mistake, that would result in the target being left with async
#   enabled, even though it wasn't to begin with.
#
# - GDB reacts to target async enablement by polling for target
#   events.  As no thread is resumed the target replies
#   TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.
#
# - The user continues the program, expecting it to exit.  The thread
#   that has an event pending (thread B) is not really resumed.
#
# - But, nothing signals the event loop that there's a pending event
#   waiting to be collected for thread B, so that event is never
#   processed, thread B is never resumed and the program never exits.
