Ah. I'm afraid you won't be able to do that directly. omniORB requires
that its threads are started by itself. You won't be able to use Java
threads. 

What you'll have to do is yourself create a PyLucene thread for each
omniORB worker thread (you can use the worker thread hook to do that),
then for each call that needs to talk to Lucene, trigger the PyLucene
thread to do it for you. It's pretty easy to do that with a Queue object
or two.

Cheers,

Duncan.
