Haha, this would still make you look at the code to remember was it
"fatal local" or "local fatal" the second one. Yeah, there's the "!" but
still.
How about:
"Fatal local machine check after banks scan"
or so.
Btw, the code in do_machine_check() has become one helluva spaghetti
mess. It could use some clean up a bit... :)
