Having an implementation for these methods would be nice, but going

the /proc/something parsing route seems wrong to me. Why not call
sysconf() with _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF (on my GUN/Linux system this is
defined in /usr/include/bits/confname.h).
This too is a system specific solution, but at least we use glibc
instead of doing the parsing ourselves. This should save us the
problem
of adopting to a new kernel every time.
We still will need different solutions for non-Linux systems.
I've implemented a combination ... using sysconf if possible and
falling back to the /proc code (though I'm not sure that /proc will
ever work where sysconf does not) as well as adding an implementation
for mswindows. The code compiles without error but is completely
untested, so it would be good if anyone interested could try it out
and report bugs.
