In particular, you shouldn't be surprised if JNI's DetachCurrentThread
bites you from behind. (When I was working with Rich Hickey's JFLI a
few years back, this call typically SEGVed in foriegn code or caused
random corruption in Java internals. I ended up recycling threads
myself rather than letting them go altogether.)
