I think that he's using Suns Java threads library, not FreeBSD native
threads - so any problems with FreeBSD threads shouldn't affect him.
I still might be able to help, though, so if you've got a simple
test program that demonstrates the problem, send it to us. I don't
have the time and disk space right now to download the JDK and
try building it myself (nor do I have an Alpha ;-)).
