Well there is the SMP development branch, which I thought I'd test
out.  Even without that, I was thinking that it might recognize
the second CPU and not spin it up.  (Or maybe crash when it saw
the second one was too different from the first.)

I was debating if tech-kern@ or port-sparc@ was better for this,
deciding on port-sparc@ in the end.  Of course I just remembered
the proper place is probably tech-smp@ and I'll now pester the
people on that list. 8^)
