And, the last thing, distributor kernels are often compiled for i586 to
be generic to all users. But some users may actually run them on i686,
and these users would like to have VMI (speculation :-). Which would
include a forceful patch to Kconfig to have the VMI option available
with CONFIG_M586.
We can reenable all these things eventually. We hacked them out to get
around some of the awful hacks required for these older machines, (F00F
bug protection, broken APICs, etc).
