Hmmm... the kernel would at least have to be aware of userland threading 
for processes that are threaded across multiple CPUs, no?

I would have thought that the ideal would be that userland threading and 
kernel threading are really the same thing, like kernel and userland 
messages. Or am I just missing something obvious?
