The > test does not *actually* test to see if the system supports binding. No, but as of now there is just no way that binding can be supported without knowing anything about the OS. There is simply no standard way of binding a thread as of now. I don't see a reason why we could let users lose time with trying to determine whether it actually works or not while it will just never work with the current codebase, and I doubt we will ever see a really standard OS way of binding threads. If that ever happens, we can still change the phrasing here, while letting the user be unsure about the current state means making him lose time.
