Actually this bug is worse that at first appears:  32-bit is badly
broken in that the core count of one processors is reported, it ignores
having multiple processors.  So on my twin-Xeon in 64-bit core.cpuid
report 1 and in 32-bit mode it reports 4 instead of 8.
Aaarrrgggghhhhhh....

NB The source code link on
http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/phobos/core_cpuid.html  points to
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/blob/master/core/cpuid.d which 
is a 404.

I guess I'll have to clone Phobos in its entirety in order to take a
look at this.  Damn I only want to look at the one file.
