Theres some documentation about porting the threads layer here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/java/port-threads.html

It looks like the information in here is mostly still current. You can 
look at posix-threads{.cc,.h} for an example implementation. If the port 
will be using the boehm-gc, you will need to port it to eCos threads as 
well - basically it needs to know how to stop other threads and find 
their stacks.

Not yet.
