gmpbench -- how to utilize all CPU cores?

[.]

The point is that almost all new Desktop-CPUs have multiple cores and to
test how they perform parallel under load, including overhead, a multie
threaded benchmark would be good. Also people could then see in the
benchmark source code how to (proper) program for multiple CPU cores
using the GMP library.
