I agree with this, the way things are moving towards multicore, we should all be using pbzip2 as default. What if bzip2 became a dummy package that pointed to pbzip2? pbzip2 doesn't suffer a performance hit on single core machines to my knowledge, and its beneficial for everyone else, so no one loses.
