Since we already figure out what the CPU is, why not have different
versions of code for different CPUs? We already do this to a limited
extent (cpu_mmx et al.), so this would simply be an extension.

Of course, somebody does need to write all this :-)  However, if we do
implement such a system, we don't need all the code right away - it can
be added as it is contributed.

Bye for now,
