I wouldn't say we are a rev or so behind. In fact our JDK is up to the
latest bugfixes from Sun. The RC1 number refers to the Sun/Inprise
release and is not related to the Blackdown numbering scheme. Also, if
you like leaving dangerounsly :), native threads are actually in the JDK
but are not stable (java -native).
