In what way is it a bug? If all the codes are assigned, then future
extensions become impossible.
If the instruction set is changed, the CPU part number should change. In other
words, future extentions should be IMPOSSIBLE. Unused opcodes should execute a
NOP or an instruction that causes the currently executing program to terminate
in a known condition ... HALT? In this way, Pentium-N code

I just tracked down a post to this mailing list from Tommy Lakofski that

the problem is P5 only and does not effect PPro or PII.
I guess that's reassuring...
