This looks to be a CPU cache memory error that is correctable. I have a
quad-core with one core giving correctable cache errors. Turning the
core off reduces my net performance significantly so instead I turned
off MCE errors (besides, they were crapping all over my xterms).
Your call as to whether your work is critical enough to replace the CPU.
Good excuse to tell your SO you have to upgrade ;D
