Already someone did :) I was too sloppy in checking my facts; it is only
-ac11 that has the 'int nr_ioapics;' in mpparse.c. As mpparse.c includes 
<mpspec.h> (where nr_ioapics is defined as an extern int) I will risk
another patch removing the declaration from mpparse.c (in ac11). My
original patch should just be silently ignored, thank you ;)

Thanks goes to Manfred Spraul who pointed out the salient facts that
I had blithely ignored. Like, all of them :/ And my apologies for
the brief confusion I might have caused in people looking in 241p10
for my phantom declaration.

This patch is only against ac11. It has been compile-tested with SMP
turned on.

Comments?
