Yes, nproc is libraryish, comparable to parts of the contents of libgomp.
Therefore it's fine with me too. I was about to commit the change, but just
notice that Glenn Lenker's contributions are visible in the ChangeLog but not
in the git history:

   2009-03-25  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>

        New modules nproc, pthread, contributed by Glen Lenker.

        * MODULES.html.sh: Add pthread, nproc.
        * lib/nproc.c: New file.
        * lib/nproc.h: New file.

Glenn, do you also agree with Ludo's request?
