I don't see any kernel-smp on that location, are they available
somewhere else, or is it indeed a SMP enabled kernel ?

*all* kernels are now smp enabled, at least 2.6.18*.

I heard rumors a bit back that the kernel guys finally found the reason
the kernel needed special compiling for smp vs. non-smp. Some dumb
programming error that had been in the kernel for eons. The correction
resulted in one kernel working on both smp and non-smp processors. So,
maybe the rumor was true?
