assuming my code isn't totally broken on your machine,
it looks as if you have no mp table at all.  so either
your machine has no mp table or we are looking in the
wrong place.

since i'm a little unsure how this could be, my next
step would be to boot linux with mp interrupts to
troll dmesg for clues and compare with where we're
looking.  perhaps someone else has a better idea.

in looking at the mp spec 1.4 again
	http://download.intel.com/design/archives/processors/pro/docs/24201606.pdf
plan 9 seems to cover the cases on p. 38 in
pc/archmp.c:/^mpsearch.  i wonder if that else
shouldn't be elided.  another way for bios to
go wrong here is to report the wrong amount
of base memory.
