 I have also experienced this behavior, and confirmed with Cyrix what
 Christopher has said in this PR.
 
 In the 5510 and 5520 support chips for the MediaGX and MediaGXm, the LATCH
 command to the 8254 does nothing. While his patch works, it's still not
 perfect. It brings the 8254 to within 1% accuracy, which is good enough for
 my uses though.
 
 (It sees my 233 GXm as 209 MHz....)
 
 If I write a detection check to see if the 5510 or 5520 is present, could
 that be useful? 
 
 Where would this be called though, if the 8254 check is done so soon,
 vendor/device ID's haven't yet been probed at that time.....
 
 Suggestions?
