Multi processor emulation

Does anybody know if there is an emulator which can emulate a system with two or more prcessors? It appears on the Bochs menu, but is greyed out, so it is presumably intended for a future release.

It is supported in Bochs, you just need to reconfigure/recompile it yourself using --enable-smp configure option.

Iirc, only when the host also has a multi core CPU (or multiple CPUs)?
