Hi,
Sorry about the [URGENT], just want to get this small fix done.
Intel and AMD 486 class processors get (mis)identified as Cyrix chips.
The attached patch should fix that problem. I also fixes a small spelling
mistake and two typos in comments.
Please Pete, could you test this out on your Intel 486 DX2-66?
Thanks in advance,
