Well, he said, but those accustomed to only thinking x86 might have missed it, the way it was worded... that ppc uses different software code in that section, code which presumably takes care of its own ppc specific issues, so the sse-only issue only applies to x86 (and amd64, but since all of those have sse, that means only x86 has the issue since only on it is sse required but not all hardware provides it). -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
