Also, beware that this is a P6 doc.  It has comments in there about early 
boot that suggest that the P6 has special MPSPEC support built in that 
probably isn't in the P5.  For example, the negotiation about which cpu is 
the BSP, ID numbers etc.  Really, that's none of our concern though, but 
there may be other minor differences we need to be aware of.

Cheers,
