Problem:
              this->thread_id = t->osthread()->thread_id();
                                       
"/h/emile/hotspot/hotspot13-compiler2rc-src-solsparc/src/share/vm/utilities/
events.cpp",
        line 139: error(494):
        no suitable conversion function from "pthread_t" to "int" exists
    Analysis:
        The statement assigns a thread_t to an int.
        "this" is an Event (events.cpp #139 in Event::fill)
        "thread_id" is an int (events.cpp #27 in class Event)
        "t" is a Thread* (events.cpp #134 in Event::fill)
        "osthread()" is an OSThread* (thread.hpp #154 and #210 in class
Thread)
        "thread_id()" is a thread_t (osThread_solaris.hpp #23 and #19 in
class OSThread)
    Remark:
        thread_t is a platform-dependent type. On Tandem, it is not
assignment
        compatible to int.

Tandem would like to see this bug fixed in jdk1.3.1.
