managed to find the right page yet...
By the way, it seems that Marco already removed the aborts a few days ago.
Indeed he did, but he also inserted code for checking for 64-bit
capability.
I consider this as a reasonable workaround for incorrect behaviour in an
emulator. We can afford to do this since cpuvec_init is not critical.
