I understand that MT is "MultiThreaded (non blocking) FFI and  
callbacks". I think this is experimental, not for general use. I also  
believe it requires specific image code, that is only in Newspeak.  
This means the MT VMs are not suitable for Cuis, Squeak or Pharo right  
now.

I'm sure a bit of googling on vm-dev will find Elliot's description of it.

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich
