Specifically, we get this result because because tid == 0, so we get
errno == ESRCH.
The tid == 0 is caused by the switch_to_no_thread in
handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit:
...
/* Switch to no-thread while running clone_program_space, so
that clone_program_space doesn't want to read the
selected frame of a dead process. */
scoped_restore_current_thread restore_thread;
switch_to_no_thread ();
inf->pspace = new program_space (maybe_new_address_space ());
...
but moving the maybe_new_address_space call to before that gives us the
same result. The tid is no longer 0, but we still get ESRCH because the
thread has exited.
Fix this in handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit by doing the
maybe_new_address_space call in the context of the vfork parent.
