Is it possible to programmatically restart the phone from a application (service) running on top of the Dalvik VM?

If the SDK does not provide this functionality, then how about using the NDK and calling some functions provided by the kernel? I know this option is not preferred (not stable enough libs), but if it's the only option, I'll have to consider that as well.
