[typo in original message fixed].

note that many ports already have "cpu* at wherever?" 

this is an extremely minor implementation detail, but..

all i386 configs will need to have something like that (or a cpu0 at
wherever?) once the SMP branch is merged.

In the fullness of time, we intend to have perhaps as many as three
different "wherever" for x86:

	mainbus
	mpbios
	acpi

to handle non-legacy machines, older mp machines (Intel Multiprocessor
Specification), and newer ones (using ACPI), respectively.
