The core VM makes no real use of OS processes or threads. Platforms
are free to do whatever they need to support the system so long as
they don't break the core. AIUI windows and mac use OS threads to
harvest OS events for example. The AsynchFilePlugin pretty much
expects OS threads of some form to be available to support
asynchronous file access (duh!) but that is an optional plugin and so
far as I recall is not much used.
