	I did find one (small) distinction using the esoteric command:

		ps -eo pid,flags,user,args

the mozillas look like this:

 1492 000 danny    /home/danny/src/mozilla/mozilla-9.8/mozilla-bin
 1494 040 danny    /home/danny/src/mozilla/mozilla-9.8/mozilla-bin
 1495 040 danny    /home/danny/src/mozilla/mozilla-9.8/mozilla-bin
 1496 040 danny    /home/danny/src/mozilla/mozilla-9.8/mozilla-bin
 1597 040 danny    /home/danny/src/mozilla/mozilla-9.8/mozilla-bin

	The '040' in the 'flags' field means 'process forked but didn't exec',
which while true, doesn't mean exactly 'process is a thread'.
