 Replying to [comment:4 kini]:
 > Is it really a bug in Virtualbox?
 Depends on your definition of "bug" I suppose.  It is at least a "missing
 feature" in !VirtualBox.

 > Is it guaranteed that Virtualbox VMs are the only places where MPIR will
 fail to correctly determine the instruction set of the CPU?
 It's not guaranteed but I don't see another scenario where this could
 happen, i.e. where the actual CPU features do not correspond with the CPU
 hardware.
