I don't remember a discussion about this.

I think it makes it easier for application developers if the don't have to 
plaster their code with #ifdef RTEMS_SMP.  You should also be able to write 
libraries that work with SMP and non-SMP configurations.  For this we have to 
provide the same ABI.  This should be the long term goal.

I propose to add a new requirement:

The non-SMP and SMP RTEMS Classic API should be ABI compatible.

On Linux you can use the thread affinity functions also on non-SMP systems.
