That worked, thank you. Had to feed it back in as /dev/mcelog was empty,
but it made a bit more sense of it:

MCE 0
HARDWARE ERROR. This is *NOT* a software problem!
Please contact your hardware vendor
CPU 0 0 data cache        bit57 = processor context corrupt
       bit59 = misc error valid
       bit61 = error uncorrected
       bit62 = error overflow (multiple errors)
  bus error 'local node observed, request didn't time out
      generic error mem transaction
      generic access, level generic'
