I suspect the "is valid" should be "is invalid". The macro causes the
check_this() method to be called on the thread class. You can find
that function in packages/kernel/current/src/common/thread.cxx.

Probably the thread is a null pointer, although it could be the stack
pointer is out of range. If it is a null pointer, that means *current
passed into the function is a null pointer. That should be easy to
check with gdb. I would checked what is going on in the monitor.c code
when it enumerates the threads. I've had this working with synth, but
never tried it on real hardware.
