Good questions.. while looking for the answer I had a look at the driver
code involved - it's a bit of a hack (well, a lot of a hack). The
driver
is writing a value at a fixed undocumented offset from the start
of the kernel mode thread structure to force it to be alertable.
Seems likely to break at any time if it isn't already broken by
Windows Server 2003.. also it would mean you'd have to re-create the
driver for the 64 bit architectures.
So I wouldn't recommend it.. sorry for not checking into it further
before posting about it.
