Yeah I don't know why the MPIR test suite didn't fail. It should have been
segfaulting like crazy. I did set some fallback values in case tuning
values are missing. But I obviously got one wrong or left one out. I'll fix
that later.

In the mean time the solution is to tune for those architectures and put
the output of the tuning code in mpn/x86/nehalem/gmp-mparam.h, etc. This
will both prevent any algorithms being used in regions where they don't
work and hopefully also set those two cutoffs I mentioned to 0, which will
cut down any chances for a real bug to be exposed.

Bill.
