We may need to go back and do some additional work on this. It doesn't 
seem to be quite as cut and dried as we initially thought.

This quirk doesn't appear to work on virtually the same motherboard with 
the barcelona processors in it. It also may be sensitive to the firmware 
version.  More extensive testing on a larger number of pre-production is 
not showing it to be as effective as it appeared to be initially on the 
testbed.

I'm doing some retesting to figure out what exact situations and 
collection of patches were able to make it work before.
