Looks like PSI have already spotted this angle: see para 34 on page 9 of

I got to find the time to sit down and read all these things and cross
reference them for myself. 

This looks like a huge battle that is going to have more far-reaching
results than M/S, Intel, IBM and others anticipate, if IBM doesn't
settle out of court with these guys. 

One of the things may be a ruling by a court (or finding) having to do
with what constitutes reverse engineering, emulation, simulation, etc.
And I don't think anyone will be quite happy with the end result.

And, I would not be surprised if IBM didn't wind up back under some
"consent degree" again.
