 Thanks, I'll see if I can find some time soon to give them a hit -- I've 
got a serial console on my laptop now, :) so any odd boot-time tests will 
be easier for me.  These would be best tested with Ingo's APIC tree, a 
current snapshot of which I may not have handy.  Ping me if I don't 
respond within a few days.
