No.  But the version of the executable I run does have SMP included.  The
(2) means the first two ply-1 moves are searched one at a time, before the
parallel search can actually start searching ply-1 moves in parallel.  I
do this when there is a reasonable chance that the next iteration might
"find a better move".  as indicated by significant node counts for two or
more ply-1 moves at the previous search.
