Works fine for me on a Solaris 8/SPARC machine running a 64-bit
kernel. I tried Python 2.0.1 and 2.1.1 both compiled with Sun Forte
6.1.

$ ./test.py
ThreadID 0 started
ThreadID 1 started
ThreadID 2 started
ThreadID 3 started
ThreadID 2 finished
ThreadID 3 finished
ThreadID 1 finished
ThreadID 0 finished
