Yes, it's -CURRENT. I have same error messages.

Seems to be affected many of Core2Duo CPUs, which are detected by cpuid
as "Family 6 processor"
For example, my notebook, ASUS F3Jr, give me same error:
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T5300 @ 1.73GHz (1731.08-MHz 686-class
CPU)
Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x6f2 Stepping = 2
Features=0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE>
Features2=0xe39d<SSE3,RSVD2,MON,DS_CPL,EST,TM2,SSSE3,CX16,xTPR,PDCM>
AMD Features=0x20100000<NX,LM>
AMD Features2=0x1<LAHF>
Cores per package: 2
real memory = 2147123200 (2047 MB)
avail memory = 2097483776 (2000 MB)
For old-core Dual Xeon (Family 10) est is alrady recognised ( I have some of
them on my workplace)
