No i'm not implying anything, only that Sig11 seems to be reported with K6
CPU's more than any other, the reason is mostly an overclocked CPU.

The linux-kernel has many K6 work arounds coded in to eliminate most (if not
all) off the software problems, if the user overclocks, then problems are
bound to happen. That is what i mean, and why i quoted the above URL.
