The seccomp sandbox allocates per-thread data structures on startup,
so the maximum number of threads is fixed at startup. This is set via
kMaxThreads, which is currently set to 100.
This is a bit low for Native Client. Currently we support 8180
threads on Linux, 2556 on Mac OS X, and at least 900 on Windows (see
tests/egyptian_cotton/nacl.scons). The maximum number of threads is
visible to untrusted code. While we don't guarantee any number, 100
is a bit low compared with what we support currently.
