Thank you for the clarification. I was not aware of this addendum. Could you forward me a link to it? The last revision I can find on the Intel web site is from 05/2010. This fixed a problem on VMware's virtual hardware. Assuming changing behavior will not affect any other systems I will fix it based on this information.
