So in practice, do our binaries run on k6 and c3 cpus or not?
Funny, did not know that cmov was optional; though I don't get the point of an optional instruction anyway. However: everything below Athlon or Pentium Por does not work with what we call i686.
so i will add a note that we are technically not i686, but we are i686 that uses the cmov instruction because we use gcc i686 optimisations. this is why we don't support the k6-2 and k6-3. right?
