The idea is nice and the name is right, but the description is wrong.
It obviously isn't the least common denominator of all KVM-capable
x86-CPUs, as my KVM-capable Core Duo (32-bit) cannot run it.
A kvm32 would be nice for symmetry.

It obviously isn't the least common denominator of all KVM-capable
x86-CPUs, as my KVM-capable Core Duo (32-bit) cannot run it.
