I'm not sure, but I think this may be a regression, I seem to recall
that a long time ago it was switched to &thread0 because otherwise
certain operations can fail due to curthread not running as root.

Rev 1.73 of this file might have some clues.

I think something weird with ipfw+uid rules can happen with curthread
rather than thread0, but I might be mistaking 1.73 for some other change.
