A pthread emulation package that is written to demonstrate 'thread like' behavior would only run uniprocessor in any case, right? I assume they are using some event mechanism for this emulation.
Use real threads for concurrency and smp is the easy answer, otherwise don't worry if
performance is acceptable I guess. My .02.

thr_setconcurrency
thr_getconcurrency(3C) Standard C Library Functions thr_getconcurrency(3C)
NAME
thr_getconcurrency, thr_setconcurrency - get or set thread concurrency level
SYNOPSIS
cc -mt [ flag... ] file...[ library... ]
#include <thread.h>
int thr_setconcurrency(int new_level);
int thr_getconcurrency(void);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are obsolete and maintained for compatibility only. The thr_setconcurrency() function updates the desired concurrency
level that libthread maintains for the calling process. This value does not affect the behavior of the calling process.
The thr_getconcurrency() function returns the current value for the desired concurrency level.
RETURN VALUES
The thr_getconcurrency() function always returns the current value for the desired concurrency level.
If successful, the thr_setconcurrency() function returns 0. Otherwise, a non-zero value is returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The thr_setconcurrency() function will fail if:
EAGAIN The specified concurrency level would cause a system resource to be exceeded.
EINVAL The value for new_level is negative.
