I would just wrap the native Java conventions that runs on the current runtime targets (openjdk{8,11,17}), but obviously not use anything that is deprecated.  

Our thread model, such as it ever was, is certainly a 1:1 mapping of LispThread to JVM thread concept, that there has never been an idea of N:M native/green thread pooling stuff.
