Whether the processor is in 32 or 64-bit mode, if NX is used, then
EFER_NX needs to be set. If NX isn't used, then it's a "Don't care". I
think bad things happens if you set the NX bit in the page table and
don't have EFER_NX set...

Okay, this should now be fixed in the public repository.

Hopefully domU PAE will boot much further now :-)
