JavaMemoryModel: Do any JVM's move memory accesses across native calls?

OK, in most JVM's, interaction with the external world
has to eventually be mediated by native code (perhaps
native code running in a separate thread that synchronizes
with Java code, but still native code).

Do any JVM's move memory accesses across native calls?
Without particular knowledge of what occurs in the native call,
this would seem to be illegal in general.
