That would probably make sense, except that ThreadLocal is a JDK 1.2
feature, and I don't want to require JDK 1.2 features.  When the issue
of requiring Java2 collections was brought up, some people mentioned
that would cause them some inconvenience; I assume the same applies to
ThreadLocal.  (Kawa can now "require" the collections framework, but
only if you specify --with-java-collections at configure time.)

One goal I have is that most of the functionality of Kawa should be
available if you compile Kawa with Gcj.
