I think I've figured out the problem. On SMP systems, fpuinit() is
called before enable_sse() for secondary processors. The ldmxcsr
instruction counts as a sse instruction, so you get an illegal
instruction fault. The patch below switches the order of fpuinit()
and enable_sse() and fixes the problem on my system anyway.
