MxN is what the SA code does, so NetBSD currently does that. The issue
is that it's not release quality yet. 1x1 has been possible for a while
with the clone(2) system call. It's Linux compatible, so you could
compile linuxthreads on NetBSD with some minor adjustments.

SMP is quite stable on i386 (and other platforms). Except if you use
applications that use libpthread, which must be fixed.
