this is not likley, since at the least, IO and inter-processor interrupts 
will be different from the Intel-proprietary (IO-APIC, etc)
that Linux uses now.  I wouldn't guess this will be a big deal,
but it's definitely a little new code.

huh?  you can write 3dnow code already (HJ released a binutils that even
assembles the opcodes!).  in any case, 3dnow patches for Mesa already exist,
and does make a difference.
