Hi all,
A bit offtopic for this list, but this is the best place I could think

So appearantly the via c7 isn't all that i686 compatible as via
claims
As Alan will likely repeat, the glibc definition of i686 is not
conformant with the Intel definition of i686. It includes instructions
Intel declared optional, and Via does not implement. So a glibc i686
binary won't run on all the i686 processors on the market.
I know, but this is a via C7 (not a C3) which _does_ implement the instructions
to match the rpm definition of i686 (which means it does implement cmov), but
appearantly it doesn't implement them too well.
Regards,
Hans
