[vos-d] S5 and single-thread option

Pete, in your description of S5 so far it seems like it is defining a
threading model that is not neccesarily coupled to a particular thread
implementation. That is, conceptually vobjects are threads or proceses
but I am guessing that you won't be implementing it by simply creating a
pthread for each vobject :)   Does this mean that it will use a thread
pool of some kind?   If so, would it be possible to have a thread pool
of size 1, thereby making it possible to run VOS on an OS that
effectively has no threads (I'm thinking of stuff like handheld devices,
phones, embedded systems, whatever).
