The Athlon has an extended version of 3DNOW, which the kernel uses as of
test11-pre2. T
You already have good answer from Arjan van de Ven.
I'm about to submit a patch for string-486.h where
3Dnow! support will be removed. It is not needed as
routines in this file expect 486 or older 586.
Anyway, i'm in doubt if this file will be ever used.
