Hi, all. I leared that mutator threads stop at safe points if a GC request
is in pending. Since JNI
code is compiled by native language compiler,  no safe points is inserted
in JNI codes. Therefore my question is: can a thread currently in JNI
context be stoped, if it can do so, which points are the proper location
for the thread stop at?
