// For sparc we do not do call backs when a thread is in the interpreter, because the
// interpreter dispatch needs at least two instructions - first to load the dispatch address
// in a register, and second to jmp. The swapping of the dispatch table may occur _after_
// the load of the dispatch address and hence the jmp would still go to the location
// according to the prior table. So, we let the thread continue and let it block by itself.
