Well, it's useful in the sense that it tells you what the maximum number of 
CPUs a kernel can support is, which is helpful, especially if you're futzing 
with MAXCPU as a kernel option :-).

But, more generally, many things that use MAXCPU should probably use either 
mp_maxid or DPCPU.  Not everything, but most things.
