The biggest problem with this version is the EFER.LMA problem on i386
discovered (and, thankfully, fixed in the suggested patch) by
Sean. To address this and all other comment I'm going to put together a

At first I thought you meant 5.20 but then I got the pun: 5.20 will
likely become 6.0 and so 5.21 pull request will just never happen :-)
