I understand that JNIEnv interface pointers are potentially different
for each thread and that JVMDI_Interface_1 interface pointers are,
like JavaVM interface pointers, the same for every thread of a given VM
instance. But, JavaMV interfaces functions also take a JavaVM* as
their first args even though the JavaVM interfaces pointer is the same
for every thread. This inconsistancy is what's confusing me ;-)

I'm not sure which question you're answering ;-)
