Call multithreaded plugin from another plugin

Hi all
I have a plugin that I've multithreaded (Purify) that I'd like to call
from another plugin. I've already reduced the code in Purify's run()
method to a call to show a dialog ( showDialog() ) and a call to a
method, purify(), that calls the rest of the plugin using the variables
returned by showDialog(). Purify works fine when I run it directly from
the Plugins menu, but when I call it from another plugin, e.g.
Purify p = new Purify();
p.purify(important, variables).show(); //p.purify returns an ImagePlus
It hangs in the middle of part of Purify that is multithreaded. It runs
properly when I run it with only 1 chunk (i.e. not multithreaded).
The multithreading is done in a subclass, as in Bob Dougherty's
LocalThickness, and I wonder if there is something important that I am
missing when making the call to Purify's methods from another class.
The code is here:
