The preliminary JDK 1.4 JVMPI spec states the following:

    "The JVMPI functions SuspendThread and ResumeThread have no
     effect on the thread status returned by GetThreadStatus.
     The status of a thread suspended through the JVMPI remains
     unchanged and the status at the time of suspension is returned."

However the semantics of the JVMPI_THREAD_SUSPENDED bit was changed to
mean that the thread has been externally suspended: JVMDI SuspendThread,
JVMPI SuspendThread, and Thread.suspend will all cause this bit to be set.

The specification should explicitly reflect this change.
