There is little or no MCE support in either i386 or amd64 kernels.  The code 
in i386 has never even been tested, because CR4.MCE was never actually turned 
on.

This would be a good project.  Both i386 and amd64 could benefit from some 
work here.  Testing it is hard though..  It might take a deliberate attempt 
to overheat a cpu to trigger a MCE event though...
