Does FreeBSD provide a means for programs to find out how many processors are installed in the system? The newest RC5 client (http://www.distributed.net/) always gives the message "FreeBSD does not support SMP or does not support processor count detection. A single processor machine is assumed". Now, true, I'm not running a SMP machine, but it would be nice if myself or someone else could correct distributed.net so they don't keep going around spreading the misconception that FreeBSD doesn't support SMP when it does. Yes, I realize that the statement clearly indicates that perhaps we just don't support returning the number of processors in a SMP system, that's why I am asking if there is in fact a way that we can share with distributed.net.
