multi-core processors

Some of the new Arm hardware running RiscOS (e.g. the ArmX6 and
Titanium) has a multi-core processor. So far, of course, RiscOS lacks
the ability to make use of the extra potential.

Question occurs to me: what's the situation with the other platforms
on which Netsurf runs -- Amiga, Atari, etc? Does multi-core ability
exist in hardware there?

Do the Netsurf developers have ideas for how Netsurf could take
advantage of the extra processing power when the OSes allow it?
