    Check for CPUs more accurartely when ONLN != CONF.
    
    There are two ways to use sysconf to ask about the number of
    CPUs. When we're on a VM, we would sometimes get it wrong by asking
    for the number of total CPUs (say, 64) when we should have been asking
    for the number of CPUs online (say, 1 or 2).
    
    Fix for bug 8002.

+  o Minor bugfixes:
+    - When autodetecting the number of CPUs, use the number of available
+      CPUs in preferernce to the number of configured CPUs. Inform the
+      user if this reduces the number of avialable CPUs. Fix for bug 8002.
+      Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
