...a sign that you're too afraid to type -native on the command line. ;-)

What !!?!??!

Ok, yeah, that's probably a bit over the edge since I'm chronically
a very loud person and it was actually suppose to amuse you. ;-)

Currently, I still have to track down a SIGUSR1 delivery bug and then
look at the HotSpot sources again to see if it actually is suppose to
work with green threads. I could have sworn that it doesn't or was
missing critical files needs for this.

After that, I'm not sure what's needed next for me to do. BTW, no WINE
engineer position for now. The group I interviewed with isn't ready to
deal with a production engineering staff just yet.
