Since gthread is just a very thin wrapper around pthreads, that would
mean that it's a stupid pthread implementation. To me this looks like
the kernel believes that it would be better to keep the threads local
than to move one to the other CPU. I wonder if perhaps the kernel is
right and using two CPUs would actually cause more overhead than it's
worth?
