 BTW, the AWT has an unprotected call to malloc() in toolkit.h.

About the functions Archie proposes to export:
I actually think we should export two pairs of functions:
one that calls block/unblockAsyncSignals and is used for really sensitive
code like the code used in libltdl/dl*, and the other would simply call
jthread_spinon(0)/jthread_spinoff(0). They could go in support.c and
we could define them in native.h in order to avoid having to include
jsignal.h or jthread.h

Btw, I still don't think things work reliably. I've had a test fail
under Linux once with something like
"/lib/libnsl.. : dlsym: res_query not found"
It's not reproducible, though.
