I made world yesterday morning on two boxes, both are GenuineIntel and
have no problems whatsoever.

Looking at /usr/src/sys/i386/i386/identcpu.c I see that the 0x580 is:

case 0x580:
	strcat(cpu_model, "K6-2");
	break;

Which gets copied into:

printf("CPU: ");
strncpy(cpu_model, i386_cpus[cpu].cpu_name, sizeof cpu_model);

But I can't find anything remotely related that would corrupt the
strncpy to print \^E.
