I do have the SMP version of the executable, but I did not have the mt=2 in my
crafty.rc.  In fact, I did not even have a crafty.rc file, I just launched from
winboard with   -cp -fcp "wcrafty xboard hash=64m" -fd "E:\Program Files\Crafty"

I just created a crafty.rc and put mt=2 into it.  Now when I run wcrafty from
the command line (no winboard) it still says (4 cpus) but also says "max threads
set to 2".  Thanks for the tip, Bob.

Darn, now I have to start all over! <grin>
