Hmm, indeed - Intel hardware only decodes 32-bits for the GPE block. Do 
we have the version 1 FADT from the machine as well? If that's correct 
it suggests that Windows gets all of this information from there rather 
than using the version 2 table at all, while if it isn't perhaps we need 
to take the width from the 64-bit values. Sigh. What a mess.
