Actually I was just looking into cleaning the code up a bit
and getting it to work on -current again. The version that
I compiled many moons ago just coredumps when trying to
bootstrap JDK2 builds on -current and I think it has to do
with the signals changes.
I would like to get a 'real' kernel threads implementation
going but it seems that it would be a -current only thing
for some time to come, so it might not be worth the effort
at this point. At least I don't think I have the energy
for it at the moment - too many other interesting projects
going on right now. :)
Thanks.
