...he CPU reports it has "syscall" and in the first one it doesn't. Since "syscall" is x86_64 instruction used instead of i386's "int 0x80" (IIRC) it makes sense that it is missing on 32-bit CPU (when the code is running in 32-bit mode). > 80000002 20202020 6e492020 286c6574 58202952 > 80000003 286e6f65 43202952 45205550 36322d35 > 80000004 204c3035 20402030 30382e31 007a4847 > > Could this be enough difference to throw cpu-detection off? > Even one bit is enough if that bit represents a flag which is not in the CPU you are looking for (i.e...
