Hi Steve,

I am in the process of building OpenCoarrays and to give it a spin.

Maybe we can think of a reasonable test case to use to test the feature that is 
not well defined yet and from a practical point view, see what makes sense.

Also, off topic. (pardon the long wind here)

I had a meeting with Damian Rousan today and we briefly talked about 
OpenCoarrays.  He has mentioned on the gfortran list about enabling it into the 
build of gfortran if a user chooses to do so. So I thought I would take a look.

Currently OpenCoarrays is built independent of gfortran and in fact if you
don't 
have the right version of gfortran available, it will build gcc/gfortran as
well 
as well.

I am running his install script now, and one issue is that it builds gcc itself 
in single thread mode.  I want to modify this so that if it detects multiple 
cores available, it can ask the user if they want to use these during build of
gcc.

On Linux I can cat /proc/cpuinfo to get at the information about the machine.

Is there an equivalent FreeBSD way to query number of cores available?
