Thank you.  I never planned to allocate to any guest more
cpus that were physically available.  What I was checking
was that a single physical cpu with four cores actually
counted as four cpus insofar as kvm itself was concerned. 
I have allocated guests their processors on the basis that
1 core = 1 cpu.  But it occurred to me that core might
actually mean something different and so I wanted to
verify my understanding.
