+Summary: Mono generates Pentium Pro specific code on AMD processors with -O=all
+
+When invoked with -O=all, Mono generates code that crashes in a AMD K6
+processor. The problem is caused by optimizations cmov and fcmov that cause
+the JIT to issue instructions that require Pentium Pro compatible processors.
+
+The problem can be fixed by invoking Mono with -O=all,-cmov,-fcmov
+
+Mono should autodect a K6 processor and disable generation of incompatible
+codes.
+
+The problem can be reproduced on a K6 machine running:
+
+mono --aot -O=all /usr/local/lib/corlib.dll => crash with SIGILL (illegal
+instruction)
