Hmm, this seems to be contrary to my theoretical expectations.  I thought that
with 4BSD all threads that were not in one of the following categories:
- temporary pinned
- bound to cpu in kernel via sched_bind
- belong to a cpu set which a strict subset of a total set
were placed onto a common queue that was shared by all cpus.  And as such I
expected them to get picked up by the cpus semi-randomly.

In other words, I thought that it was ULE that took into account cpu/cache
affinities while 4BSD was deliberately entirely ignorant of those details.
