I'd have thought we could just rely on online_cpus() returning 1 here to
avoid having to ask "do we even have thread support?". But I guess that
TODO comment implies that we might one day two 2 threads on a single
CPU.

And here is the patch I created when testing out the idea of removing NO_PTHREADS. It doesn't require any 'HAVE_THREADS' tests.
