Thats the official name of the Cyrix, although they were far from being
actual 686 CPUs. The clock speed reported is also correct. Cyrix rated
them with a PR rating which, unlike the Athlon XP ratings, was overly
optimistic. Your "200MHz" is a 200PR CPU, which did run at 166MHz, but
had the performance of maybe a 133 Pentium (I had a 166PR, which ran at
133, until it self destructed). I would try changing CPUTYPE to i586 or
i486.
All of this doesn't explain the perl related error you're seeing though
:) Try recvsuping.
