Java Fork/Join

Does anyone else find it ironic that Doug Lea's Fork/Join for Java reinvents green threads? Yeah, I'm a little late reading this, but there is other more recent good commentary on Fork/Join (the last paragraph says it all). Don't get me wrong, I think Doug Lea is one of the smartest people working on concurrency problems these days, but I can't help feeling that most of the work on Java concurrency these days is a big bandage on top of the gaping chest wound of the shared-state model.
