+ a) The thread ID (Id). This consists of the pair of:

+ - the thread's thread number in its inferior, aka, the
+ per-inferior thread number. This number is unique in the
+ inferior but not unique between inferiors.
+
+ b) The global ID (GId). This is a a single integer unique
+ between all inferiors.

+ 2.3 6 Thread C 0x15ebc6ed in bar () at foo.c:20
