Something in this mail sounds like a disconnect. The pthread API implementation bundled with current Linux releases (it actually comes as part of glibc) uses the native Linux threading facility... it's what the JDK itself uses to get native threading. So I'm not sure what is meant by "change the pthread code to use native threads". You mean don't use the pthread API and just call Linux' clone() syscall? Native apps using the pthread API should be able to play with the native-thread JDK, but not with the green-thread JDK. That is, unless, you've somehow latched onto a pthread implementation other than the one that comes with glibc.
