Hm, yeah, its strange; clearly its running "pause" in normal use, so it
can't be the instuction itself which is causing the problem. The MSR is
7781fffe0401e172 btw.

That means pause isn't set for interception.

I ran a small test program, and it liked pause as well.

Can you send me your vmlinuz? I wasn't able top reproduce the problem with mine.
