The behaviour may not be identical but it is non-identical in theoretical fatal
cases.
We are actually better off here. I am seeing fewer JNI warning as a result.
Also NS exceptions per Apple should result in termination of the process.
I don't think JNF ever did the right thing.
So as I am sure you know this is only ever going to come into play if there is
some JNI
error which indicates an internal error. I don't think we are any worse off
here.
