Yes, which is why the FAQ:

	http://www.ethereal.com/faq.html#q5.11

specifically mentions that.  (I'd thought I'd updated the Win32 binary
distribution page to mention it as well; I'll have to do that.)

I'll ask them again about donating an MP machine to them; I don't know
whether a hyperthreaded machine would be as good as a real live SMP
machine at catching bugs.
