The K6 bugs are memory/cache related ones when doing self modifying code
(signal returns in this case) in just the wrong conditions. Its obscure
and weird which is I asusme why it escaped AMD's testing initially.
They shouldnt affect the IDE at all. However it is common for a box like
that to have VIA VP2/VP3 IDE, and that is definitely broken in 2.3.99pre*
right now for some setups. Very broken.
