The `test/jdk/sun/tools/jcmd/JcmdOutputEncodingTest.java` and `test/jdk/sun/tools/jstack/BasicJStackTest.java` are 2 such threads which require special handling when the current thread is a virtual thread.

I went back and looked at the original issue for which this test was introduced and based on that, using a different command to dump the stacktraces shouldn't impact what the test was originally intended to test.
