For what it's worth, I can't seem to trigger the problem if I move the
cmos read above the SIPI/LAPIC code (see patch below).

I used this command line:

while true; do (sleep 5; echo -e '\001cq\n')| ../qemu/qemu-git/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -chardev file,path=foo.`date +%s`,id=seabios -device isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=seabios -machine pc-i440fx-2.0,accel=kvm -m 1024 -smp 128 -nographic -device sga -L test 2>&1 | tee /tmp/qemu.op; grep "internal error" /tmp/qemu.op -q && break; done

This is on an "AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor" machine.
