For now we're targeting Pentium+, and using feature specific to
that level.  We need to save/restore all the CPU state on
switches between the host and monitor contexts.  Some
of that context is Pentium specific, like the CR4 as
Ulrich mentioned.  Also, we'll need to deal with the
Time Stamp Counter (TSC) and other registers which are not
on the 386.  You might be able to omit access to those
registers for the moment, but it will be more difficult
as the code progresses.
