Well, not all Java implementations map Java threads to OS threads. AFAIK
the JRockIt VM does a N-to-N mapping btw Java/OS threads, and Tower's static
compiler implements their own threading instead of using the OS's. So, if
you're using anything other than the vanilla, "standard" Sun JDK, the
question should be routed to the vendor.
